Hi Carlos
This first error means that you didn't compile your kernel with
capabilities. It is a two-line patch, and you can find out about it here:
http://jackit.sourceforge.net/docs/faq.php#q5
Jack is probably choking becuase you are asking it to run as realtime
without this capabilties patch. Running as root would avoid the problem
as well. Also, if you run Jack as root, it writes a temporary file in
/dev/shm [i think.... can somebody verify?] which prevents subsequent
use by a user [permissions error to write to the same file]. deleting
the file or rebooting will avoid this problem.
but better to recompile with capabilities and avoid all these funny
little things ;-)
good luck,
D.

Ok!
I've tried it...
But, having everything up and running and installed by default, I don't
understand why the GUI interface for JACK retrunes me this error:
jackstart: cannot get realtime capabilities, current capabilities are:
=ep cap_setpcap-ep
probably running under a kernel with capabilities disabled,
a suitable kernel would have printed something like "=eip"

Then, instead of using "jackstart" on Server Path, I tried to use
"jackd". The return error was:

Is this version of JACK supposed to be started as ROOT??
This means that I must SU first and then start Ardour...
And if I do it, JACK starts but Ardour shuts down with the error:
Ardour/GTK 0.377.1 running with libardour 0.685.0

fine! Remember that you must install JACK server first!
However, I'm having problems using Ardour... when I run jackd and then
run Ardour the application starts normally... After making some work it
just goes down because JACK server crashes and abort.
Why aren't you using the rpm of ardour that comes with Mandrake 9.2?
No need to compile, it installs jackd for you, and runs qjackctl
automatically when you start ardour...
