2.6.13.1-rt6, rlimits-patched pam and configured thus: # in /etc/security/limits.conf * - rt_priority 0 * - nice 0 @audio - rt_priority 50 @audio - nice -10 jack starts happily with realtime enabled, and the xruns are very few. But no jack application will start, they all give this error: jack_create_thread: error -1 switching current thread to rt for inheritance: Unknown error 4294967295 It's like the ol' jack is root apps can't connect days, but I thought rtlimits was supposed to make it possible for a user to get rt_priority. Am I missing something? Ah! It came to me just now - I set the priority field in qjackctl to 0 instead of 1 (where it was) and now jack apps can start. Heads up there. Maybe applications need a way to recognize what rt_priority level to ask for based on what jack is running at? On a tangent, how exactly does that work? Is rt_priority=0 sufficiently prioritized? (because it is the only thing running realtime) -- Hans Fugal | If more of us valued food and cheer and http://hans.fugal.net/ | song above hoarded gold, it would be a http://gdmxml.fugal.net/ | merrier world. | -- J.R.R.
