- Many modplayers don't know how to allocate CIA-timers, they just
- use them even though some other program has allocated them and is
- currently using them. Executive uses one of the two CIA-timers, so
- the mod-player should use the other one, or complain that no free
- timer is available. Simply use ExecutivePrefs and change the timer
- that Executive uses to "timer.device".
