It is not possible to run jackd as root and applications as a user, from
what I understand. All jack apps, including jackd, have to be run from the
same account.
jackd -R gives real-time support
jackd -R as a user is not allowed
jackstart -R allows the user to get real-time support
jackstart _may_ have been written by Fernando at the Planet. I am not sure.
Once I heard this, but I'm not sure.
jackstart is a requirement for me to run jack just from a usage point of
view. I won't have all these apps running as root.
This also require the appropriate kernel, but we've been over that already.
Cheers,
Mark

I don't seem to have that command.
I do have jackd though. If I try to run jackd -R I get permission
errors. I assume that is the problem?
Is it not possible to run jackd as root, but run your application as a
user?
I'll ask at Mandrake though.
