In max priority mode, I need mouse and keyboard working, not only lpt
I think the problem may be that the python/Vision Egg application gets
maximum priority and shuts out all others, including X11. I think X11
must handle the mouse and keyboard presses before they get through to
SDL/pygame/VisionEgg.
I think you have two options: 1) Try changing the priority value sent
set_self_policy_priority() to something like "max_priority-1" (or less)
instead of "max_priority". 2) Send an email to the SDL mailing list
asking about getting events in X11 when you've set maximum priority.
(You'll probably want to look in the swig_src/posix_maxpriority.c file
to describe exactly how maximum priority was set --
sched_setscheduler() call.)
Cheers!
