Music interrupts (system load)

I'm playing my music with the BMP. When the system load gets higher (even for a short time) the music falters and interrupts. This happens even when I open nautilus (or other applications) or when I e.g. copy some data. I'm running gnome 2.8.
Is there a possibility to set process priority or another way to solve such problems?

I'm running kernel 2.6.7 (but I'm downloading a 2.6.8.1 version) and ALSA. PreEmpt is enabled. The system runs on AthlonXP2500 on nForce2 with the onboard sound device. Should I try nvidia's nForce driver?
The problem occurs often when I'm using firefox (especially when I'm downloading stuff with firefox) and openoffice (but more rarely for exemple while running GIMP).
Thank you for your answer...

  • GPU Acceleration in Chromium causes heavy system load

    I experience a heavy system load (especially if I'm watching videos or listening to music on soundcloud) if I use the hardware acceleration feature in Chromium.
    I use the standard linux kernel(not the lts one) and the drivers from the nvidia-package. I got a Nvidia GeForce GT 525M GPU.
    If I deactivate the hardware acceleration feature in chromium, it doesn't need so much system resources, but maybe there are more factors which cause the heavy system load.
    I'd like to be able to activate the feature, because otherwise I can't scroll through webpages smoothly.
    The same thing happens if I use the google-chrome package from the AUR.
    Has somebody experienced the same problem and/or has ideas how to solve it?

    Isn't HW acceleration disabled by default on Linux? AFAIR it always had a lot of problems.

  • Sony HAPS1/B 500GB Hi-Res Music Player System

    I just purchased a Sony HAPS1/B 500GB Hi-Res Music Player System.  My hope it to store my 200+ CD collection on it and be able to play it through this device with the full audio resolution.  Sony is not very helpful as far as their manuals or customer support, and, of course, every support person will immediately say they can't help because we need to talk with Apple or whomever. 
    It appears that the HAP transfer program requires that I have my lossless music in a folder on my MacBook Pro.  I had hoped I could simply copy directly from my CD drive (external for my MacBook Pro). 
    I've set iTunes to the maximum settings for lossless non-compression when loading CD's.  Prior to this, it appears that iTunes turned all my CD's into mp3 files, and the Sony HAPS1/B 500GB Hi-Res Music Player System is dutifully copying all those MP3 files to it's internal hard drive. 
    I guess what I'm asking is, does anyone know a shortcut for getting CD's to the Sony HAPS1/B 500GB Hi-Res Music Player System?
    Thanks for your hep.

    Set it to AIFF.
    Do this before you RIP any CDs and they will be imported in this format.
    Why rip as AIFF if it supports ALAC?  Smaller files and same quality.
    PersonRichardson:  You can't just "copy" files from a CD to a computer.  Audio CDs have a special format and the files have to be "ripped" using iTunes or other ripping software.  If you don't want these to have the intermediary step of being added to iTunes (though you can delete them again) you can use a non-iTunes ripper such as XLD or Max.

    when i am executing "RSSTAT83" report then its thriwing "LOGDB_SSCR_NOT_FOUND" dump.
    statndard job getting cancelled thats why i hae change the status of all standard btc jobs.
    but system is still too much slow. Right now there is no job running.my patch level is also 14 of both abap & basis.
    What to do......

    Hi Gaurav
    this kind of error belongs to In correct time Zones, OS Time and R/3 Time was different, please set both time zones same in all clients using STZAC Tcode
    again if not slove your problem then fallow this procedure.
    It is possible that the workload collector is not schedule. To schedule the collector, choose, in Expert user mode, Collector -> Perf. Monitor Collector -> Execution Times in the left subscreen. The system displays the Contents of table TCOLL screen. Ensure that the report RSSTAT83 is scheduled hourly.
    if not scheduled hourly, then execute aboue report in SE38

  • My hard drive crashed and I have lost my Itunes library. How can I get my the music that I loaded from my own CDs back on my PC from my iPod?

    My hard drived crashed in my HP Pavilion desktop and I have installed a new one. I have Windows 2007. My Itunes library is gone. How can I get all the music that I loaded onto my iPod from my own CD's back into an Itunes library?

    The loading of audio files to iPod is designed to go one way only: computer to iPod. There are some third-party applications available which will rescue an audio library and write the files back to a PC HDD. The playlists might not copy, nor the album art work, nor videos but you might be able to recover all audio files. Some apps are open source and available for free download, for example: Senuti, Onyx. There are others which are  Windows-based; do a Google search to find out. 

  • URLClassLoader slower than system loader

    I'm subclassing URLClassLoader to load jar files on the local file system. I noticed that URLClassLoader loads about 30% slower than placing the jar files on the system class path. In my app, class loading performance in very important -even though it is just a one time hit.
    I suspect the URLClassLoader (which I believe is implemented mostly in Java on Sun's VM) is not leveraging the many performance optimziations that the system loader enjoys (which is probably implemented in native code).
    I also experience the same performance issue if I try to do jar loading myself using Java ZipFile i/o.
    Comments?

    well there is quite more overhead involved - loading from classpath of course is the most optimized one.

    Hello Chance1985,
    Sorry for your wait. Okay so let's try re-connecting with iTunes on your computer and syncing your device. This may give you all your stuff back. Sync in Music tab.

  • Determining system load

    Is it possible for the Java RTS to return information about the load the threads it manages are putting on the CPU? I have developed a number of alternative schedulers using the priority scheduler as my base (using some of the ideas brought up on this forum and some ideas from Dr. Andy Welling's book), and I would like to test them.
    Specifically, since the algorithms are really simulations of other scheduling policies using priority scheduling, I am interested in determining the execution magnitudes at which the overhead associated with the simulation becomes neglectable i.e. at what execution magnitudes do the developed schedulers begin to approach the ideal system load before missing deadlines. For example, for the EDF scheduler I am interested in knowing the thread execution magnitudes at which the system load at which a deadline is first missed is 1.

    If you're running Java RTS on Solaris, DTrace is able to provide you all the details about the time each thread is running on each processor. You could also download the tool called Thread Scheduling Visualizer (TSV) on Java RTS download page. This tool is using DTrace to record this kind of information and provides a graphical view of the scheduling of the different threads. The TSV bundle also contains a directory called DTraceToolBox with several DTrace scripts. The script named thread_cpu_prio.sh should do something close to what you're looking for.

  • System.load fails in Vista

    Hi All!
    I am using JNI to call a DLL for my Java Application. It works fine in windows-XP, but doesn't work in Vista.
    I am using following code:
    System.load(absolute_path_to_DLL);
    I was astonished to see that it works fine from eclipse workspace(on Vista) when i debug the code, but does not work from installed location.
    I have set classpath to all the needed jars and dlls and set PATH variable also and use following code in batch file to execute the main class:
    JAVAW com.pack1.pack2.mainClass
    Please help me to sort out the problem. Thanks.
    Regards,
    Zia

    "Does not work" tells us nothing.
    Either it threw an exception on the load or it didn't. If it did then then print the stack trace and post.
    If it didn't throw an exception then there is another problem.
    Presumably you are using java 1.6.

  • Zones not booting - failed to create devlinks: Interrupted system call

    I just installed the latest 10_Recommended cluster with 118833-36 kernel patch and now my zones won't boot. I get the error:

    Also, running devfsadm or drvconfig;devlinks from the global zone will core dump.
    Any ideas..??
    tia..

    First, you gotta change your prompt to something less embarrassing when you post to a public forum :)
    I'd forget about the zones problem and focus on why devfsadm core dumps -- that's the core of the problem (no pun intended...no, really!).
    First, review the install logs of all the patches installed during the recent service (/var/sadm/patch/*/log). Even if they all show a good completion, check the messages they generated, sometimes they have errors that aren't bad enough to cause a complete failure of the patch. The KJP (118833-36) is probably a good one to start with.
    Next I'd "truss" the devfsadm command while it core dumps then get a stack trace of the core (run "adb <corefile>" and type "$C" -- that's old school, I'm sure mdb is much cooler...).
    Throw some of the strings from those against sunsolve and see if something sticks.
    Good luck!

    I am still having the same problem, I tried rebooting several times and adjusting my firewall.  The only way I have found to work around the problem is to upload the CD to my MacBook Pro and pull it over to my iMac using home share.  FYI, I have not updated my MacBook to iTunes 12 or OS X Yosemite.

  • System.load("path") problem

    hi all,
    I am facing a problem to load a library using System.load("abc.lib"). Its throws a unsatisfied link error. But, if i use the absolute path, then its successfully load the library.
    Please help me, how can i load a libray using parameter in relative path..
    Thank you

    abc.lib is my current working directory and i used System.load("./abc.lib") but it raised the same problem.
    I browse the API that System.load() takes the absolute path not relative path.
    I am using this in an applet.
    Please help me, how can i resolve this problem.
