OK, will do.

that kernel.

If I remember correctly this also included a PAM patch: does it still?
I will investigate.

How does one control the IRQ number of the device? I thought this was 
determined by the hardware.
Can you point me to a URL so that I might learn more? (I dont really 
know what terms to search for)

 > 7) Make sure you have the Jack FIFOS mounted on tmpfs.

Of course!

I was using a modified jack.spec file from the CVS distro of jack. I 
will change my version but perhaps I should suguest this change to the 
jack people as well?

It does very much! I didnt really realize that the LSM module ran on top 
of the rt patch!
Does your kernel have Default linux capabilities enabled? I cannot 
remember if this is supposed to be on or off with the LSM module...

Thanks for the help Mark!
