Dear all.

I have a dial-up internet connection via external USR modem. (attached to COM port) I noticed the following: when i do some CD-AUDIO ripping (using grip via external cdparanoia) my internet connection stops. e.g: if i download a huge file, and in the same time run CD-AUDIO ripping -- download pauses while ripping (exactly -- CD reading) is in progress, thoug i run grip as 'nice -n 18 grip' (otherwise -- the whole system freezes [:-)] ), and as soon as i pause/stop the ripping -- download continues.

Don't do them at the same time ? Seriously. -- Regards Cliff
