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.
