[gentoo-user] asterisk_nice -5

[Joseph <syscon@interbaun.com>]

Can any body give am a helping hand how to modify asterisk startup
script to start it with let say nice -5
I think I'll need to modify something in the beginning in this section,
but I don't exactly know how.

depend() {
        need net
        use zaptel
}

start() {
        local OPTS USER GROUP

        if [[ -n "${ASTERISK_NICE}" ]]; then
                if [[ ${ASTERISK_NICE} -ge -20 ]] && \
                   [[ ${ASTERISK_NICE} -le  19 ]]; then
                        OPTS="--nicelevel ${ASTERISK_NICE}"
                else
                        eerror "Nice value must be between -20 and 19"
                fi

Asterisk run at the same nice level "0" as apache and when the fax comes
in sometimes I get a lot of bad lines.
So, adjusting nice level to -5 for asterisk might help. 
Asterisk intercept faxes and forwards it to a fax extension.
