Hi,

I installed the foldingathome ebuild and use the script
/etc/init.d/foldingathome to start and stop it.  However, since the program is
meant to only run when nothing else is running, it would be nice to set the
priority as low as possible.  I did this simple by replace the line

./foldingathome >&/dev/null&

with

nice -n 19 ./foldingathome >&/dev/null&

Thanks,

Ric.
