If I am running the 64 bit version of the Daemon and it is connected to jack will the 32 bit libs allow me to run a 32 bit app and connect to the 64 bit Daemon? Will the 0.9.15 32 bit packages above be compatible with 0.9.16 64 bit? Is there another way to enable this to work similar to the ndiswrapper approach for the older flashplugins? I'm looking at this from the point of view of a "normal" user who doesn't know anything about the system other than how to find and run the application they would like to play with. My goal is to understand what exactly we are missing to make it possible for this "normal" user to have firefox running with some flash or realplayer streams, skype ticking over in the background play a few songs in totem and occasionally without having to think about it do some video editing or make some music without bringing down the audio system.
