Hey,
Adding the line:
@audio - memlock unlimited
should be safe enough. I've set up many systems, usually that does the
trick fine.
I have noticed that sometimes.. (seemingly quite random to me) some
apps (like Ardour)
would warn that "memlock is unlimited" and that could *cause* lock
ups, and it should be set
to something like "memlock 151832" or along those lines.. (Please
dont use that number, it totatlly
depends on how much RAM your system has, and how many apps your going
to be running etc etc)
On Ubuntu Lucid the file /etc/security/limits.conf is no longer used for
this purpouse. Check the file /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf instead.
I too had the same problem until I realized this.
From this link: http://ubuntustudio.org/LucidLynx -
Beginning with the Ubuntu package
jack-audio-connection-kit-0.118+svn3796-1ubuntu2 editing of
/etc/security/limits.conf should not be required. JACK will write the
following during post-installation to /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf
# generated by jackd's postinst.
# Do not edit this file by hand, use
# dpkg-reconfigure -p high jack
# instead
@audio - rtprio 99
@audio - memlock unlimited
#@audio - nice -19
