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. -- joq
