You can easily set this (2.6 :> and later) to 1 mS (set hires_tick to 1 in /etc/system). : So both 20 and 50Hz should be achievable "out of the box". Frode can go check : /etc/system to see if the default has been modified. The default has not been changed. Would changing to a hires tick improve reliability when I don't want/need granularity of <10mS? Must I run as root on solaris to get the expected behviour? It appears as it works better for root but I have not tested heavily. -Frode -- ^ Frode Tenneb� | email: ft@edh.ericsson.se ^ | Ericsson Radar AS.
