I got the feeling another 'thread' was stopping a mouse handling
'thread' and a sound handling 'thread' from running for a split
second from time to time.  If that was the case the problem would
be in the thread scheduling code.

Note I don't know _anything_ about quake 2, it might not even
work that way (i.e. splitting mouse and sound into different
threads).  Alternatively I could have explained what I meant
conceptually in terms of interrupts being unserviced.

Just throwing up vague suggestions.  What I saw could have even
been explained a forgotten about background process running on
my system now and then, though I did check with top at the time,
and nothing springs to mind.

Cheers,

Arny
