[Qt-interest] QTimer not firing while GUI busy

[Joshua Grauman]

Hello all,

I just upgraded my system from Slackware 12.0 to Kubuntu 9.10, and my 
application is no longer working. It appears that the QTimer is not firing 
as frequently as before and therefore is not able to record a measurment 
accurately. I see in the docs that QTimer won't fire while the application 
is busy. Is there any way around this? I would like my QTimer to fire 
every 20 msec, even if it has to interrupt the gui for a microsecond to 
record a measurement... Thoughts? Thanks.

Josh
