it's a question of security.
in fact, the full capability is dangerous from this perspective.
some of last security holes on 2.4 kernel are related with this.
well, in theory, it's possible to enable all capabilities but drop it
in the early boot stage by setting via /proc/sys/cap-bound. but it
will be unlikely implemneted.
it must be pretty hard to convince security guys to accept CAP_SETPCAP
capability as default.
Is there another (secure) way of using jackd in realtime without
making it suid root?
What advice can I give to an unexperienced linux user?
sorry, i don't know jamin.
very nice mastering jack application -- you must know ;-)

- the first thing to start with "real"
audio under KDE is to
deactivate aRts -- right?
yes, if it's conflict.
the sb live, for example, can run jackd and artsd for the playback
stream (i.e. not for the full-duplex).
It's a matter of hardware then? Till now I am bound to use the
builtin audio from my ASUS A7N8X Deluxe. But that's not as bad.
For live recording I'm using a iBook with TC.works Spark LE
and Tascam US-122 as audio interface. Then import the session
into ardour and find out what next ;-)))
