is outside the scope of this document.
+jackd has to run with realtime priviledges. One way to do this on Slackware would
+be to use set_rlimits. Since 12.2 there's another way, though experimental. If
+you have a filesystem that supports posix capabilities (reiserfs does not), you
+can grant jackd the rights to run in realtime mode, even when started as normal user
+with the following command:
+
+ setcap cap_sys_nice=ep /usr/bin/jackd
+
jack optionally uses libsndfile which is also available at SlackBuilds.org.
