I have no idea what amSynth's damage is. I don't know if selinux or something similar is active in gentoo (it is in fc3 where I just got a report of this problem). I'm guessing the amSynth problem is a combination of selinux, jack and suid executables, at least in my case. AmSynth installs by default suid root, changing the executable (in /usr/libexec/amSynth.bin) to 0755 seems to solve this particular problem (ie: amSynth starts fine after that). -- Fernando
