sound problem


I got this error message when i log in every time

"Sound server warning message:
Can't set real-time scheduling priority.
You need to run artswrapper as root or
setuid root. This means that you will
likely not be able to produce acceptable
sound (i.e. without clicks and breaks)."

could anyone tell me what this means ?

thanks

It means aRts is a bit sucky. You can make artswrapper suid root by using chown to set it to root, then chmod +s I think, but best to use a different sound server that doesn't play games like that....
