SubjectRe: Re: Clock
Date


Dear Colleagues

I think that I was not clear in the last message.
I wrote "clock" but I mean "clock ticks".

In the LINUX system one tick is equal to 10ms.
I want to change this value to 1ms, for example.

"A periodic 10 ms clock tick is problematic for supporting multimedia applications whose time requirements often require a finer granularity."

Then ...

Which is the right procedure ??
Could I find some kind of problem after this modification ??

Once more thank you.
Best regards,
Livia Catarina.
