aRts nice?

[James Richard Tyrer]

I have found that sound works much better on my system if: "artsd" runs at nice 
-10.  Am I correct in this belief or is it something else?

I have make a patch for the: "artswrapper" that sets the nice value to -10.

See attached.

I also found it helps to set X to a nice value of -8.  Edit the: 
"$KDEDIR/share/config/kdm/Xservers" file.  Mine is attached.

With these two settings I get good reaction time when I move windows but moving 
windows does not screw up music playing through aRts.
