Hi All.

Any ideas how to change the "nice" process priority of a prgram?

I would like to "tune" everything so the changes stay after a reboot.

TIA,

J

Best I can think of is create a bash script to start the program that automatically re-nice's the process for you. Not sure how this would work for things like Galeon or Mozilla that spawn a bunch of threads though.

Create an alias in the user's .bash_profile file (or whatever shell you use) for something like the following:

Code:
alias my_proggy = "nice -19 my_proggy"
