If you have a 1.0GHz Durn processor, theoretically you should be able to burn that CD at 32X (burner permitting), have 10+ Mozilla windows open, all without a skip in the playback, or boggage. I have an AMD K6-2 450, and I currently can't do 1/4 the stuff simultaneously without music skipping as I could in other, anonymous operaing systems. Also, a simple ogg123 off of the commandline skips a little as well, when untaring something. -Craig From: "The Anarcat" <anarcat@anarcat.ath.cx> On Mon Mar 24, 2003 at 02:14:48PM -0500, Don wrote: >> > Should a PR be filed or some QA team contacted to make sure this >> > problem doesn't stay alive in 5.2? :) >> This isn't, by chance, a problem with your setting for the >> sysctl "hw.ata.atapi_dma" is it? >How extraordinarly cute!
