Ardour most recent

I can get Jack to fire up no problems but the Xrun callbacks run like
crazy! It seems to do it only on the playback side of the duplex I/O.
(tested in options of Qjackctl) Does not appear to do it on Capture.
Ardour connects as client etc. Seems fine although I've not tried to
record anything yet. Just realized that the only thing I have not set up
is "tmpfs" although I did on the last install with the exact same setup
and it still did the same thing.
This will print the tmpdir JACK is using...
$ jackd -V
Any ideas??
There are lots of things that can cause xruns.
For starters, make sure you're specifying the --realtime (-R) option
and running `jackstart' rather than `jackd'. This is required for
using capabilities as a normal user (modprobe realtime allcaps=1).
IIRC, Thac's packages may require a command named `jackd-realtime',
instead. Someone will correct me if that is wrong.
