Re: Fldigi Freezing


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Thanks David, I will select Pulse Audio.

That's interesting about the "nice" factor and how to change it. According to HTOP it looks like NI was at 0. Do you recommend another setting?
Also, the thing about multiple fldigi showing up in HTOP. Is that just showing various functions that's running within Fldigi. At first it looks like it's starting Fldigi multiple times but I can't think of a way that's happening.

Ron,

You should be able to select "Pulse audio" check box on the configuration tab for audio devices.? Pipewire will be used.? The "nice" factor determines how much CPU a specific executing program uses:

Adrian, that's the interesting thing is I'm not sure why multiple Fldigi instances are running. Next time I'll have to do the sudo pkill fldigi and see what happens.

David, I have Pipewire selected under Port Audio. I'm running rigcat to control the Icom IC-7300 and only one instance. I don't know what the "nice" factor is.

Thanks, Ron NY3J

Pulseaudio or Pipewire ?? ?What is the "nice" factor for each of the instances?? Only one instance should be transceiver control (or use flrig, it can support multiple clients).? If two of the instances are being used for monitor only, try increasing the niceness of those two instances.

Three instances running together ?

Try

# sudo pkill fldigi

before restarting ?

Hi All,
?
I'm still fighting the problem with Fldigi freezing on me with Linux Mint 22.1 and Fldigi 4.2.04.24.
Today on the 80 meter NBEMS nets at about 2 hours worth of net activity on a few different nets I looked up and Fldigi was frozen.
I have to kill Fldigi. When I look at HTOP this is what I see.

It just looks like Fldigi is taking up so much resource and eventually freezes up. Everything else on the computer is working.

I don't see any other problems like this being reported so it may be something on my local machine.
Maybe after a certain about of activity I need to reboot the computer.
?
