I like to follow articles benchmarking OSs on phoronix a lot. Whenever Arch looks bad I see comments riddled with saying that is because the default scheduler sucks. I feel fairly compitent with Linux but for some reason schedulers seemed like this black box that lives in the realm of places where I normally break my OS from not paying close attention.
Is it a program run by something like systemd? Is it a config or patch of the kernel? Which ones are good and how important are they?
Anyways, any advice on schedulers would be appreciated.
Just had my old dumb LG TV die after 9 years of working just dandy. I lack the desire to root around for a dead capacitor so I am currently in the market for an approximate replacement to act as the display for my Linux media center in my living room. I figure this is the right crowd for finding a non-invasive TV so my Linux machine can be the brains. I trust modern Tvs less and less.
Desired features
55"
Non terrible audio
As dumb of hardware/software as reasonably achievable
