Thanks Fernando for the patch!

I had a little supprise once I installed the patched pam from source: 
after shutdown I couldn't get back in!
I used a rescue disk though and fixed pam by removing all occurances of 
the $ISA variable in each of the files in pam.d, as I was getting 
/var/log/messages about pam not being able to find some of the .so files.

My next questions are:
1. Why won't pam do what it needs to with this $ISA variable?
2. Now that I have a running RT kernel and a patched for rlimits pam 
with all users having "realtime" permissions; how should I start jackd 
and pd to take advantage of these changes?
I run:
nice -5 qjackctl (starting jackd with a priority of 89 as that seems to 
be as high a priority as qjackctl will let me pass)
nice -5 pd
But my latency values are about the same as running:
qjackctl (and jackd at 0 priority)
pd

...?

Thanks for the continued help!
