When running MusE sequencer from the terminal, I'm getting this output:
Code: Select all
-> 09:56:33.416 Init MIDI...
Trying RTC timer...
fatal error: open /dev/rtc failed: Permission denied
Trying ALSA timer...
AlsaTimer::initTimer(): best available ALSA timer: HR timer
got timer = 34
[......]
INFO: Requested timer frequency:1024 actual:1000
I tried to find some info online about any merits of this RTC timer w.r.t. the Alsa timer, but most info I could find on this issue is from more than 10 years ago.
I tried some instructions to make RTC available to MusE (mostly involving .conf files in various places), but no such luck. Also, its default clock speed seems to set to 64Hz, and refused to be set to any other frequency.
So, does anyone have some current information about using/setting RTC? Is it even worth the trouble?
