JACK latest version jack-audio-connection-kit-0.101.1 from http://jackaudio.org

Dependencies: Kernel-2.4,2.5,2.6 with tmpfs and shared memory mounted on /dev/shm, however from what I read from the site with kernel-2.6.7 and on it has a problem in creating SCHED_FIFO threads with nptl, no actual solution (maybe in cvs but I never tried), workaround LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19 in jackd process and every jack client; libsndfile (http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/), portaudio (http://www.portaudio.com), coreaudio (http://developer.apple.com/audio/coreaudio.html), oss (http://www.opensound.com/), alsa (http://www.alsa-project.org/), freebob (http://freebob.sourceforge.net/) and pkgconfig (http://pkgconfig.freedesktop.org/).

Installed as follow:

./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-static --enable-shared
make
make install

Useful switches are --enable-posix-shm, --enable-optimize, --enable-resize (resizing of buffer); --enable-altivec, --enable-mmx and --enable-sse are checked by default.

Oh, I forgot to mention that arts is disbanded and with Kde-4.0 there will be a new sound system

Package upgrade to version 0.102.20

Added experimental MIDI support; ALSA default backend when both it and "freebob" are present.

JACK is intended for audio production in stuidos, and BLFS dosen't have any free software profensail apps, yet.
