The priority can be set in /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config
The priority is set correctly despite of the warning (as you can see with the
"top" command). The warning comes from a bug in Xwrapper. It uses a C unix
function "nice" to set the pririority which return 0 to mean "succeed" (as it
is common for C program). But Xwrapper believe that the return value of nice
is the priority which has been set and display a warning.
