Hi,

The JACK FAQ suggests creating the mount point /tmp/jack, and placing a
tmpfs filesystem there, for jackd to use. Doing so doesn't seem to
have any effect -- my jackd continues to do everything in /tmp. Is it
also necessary to recompile jackd to get it to use that new tmpfs
filesystem? In the same part of the JACK FAQ, there's a bit about
creating a similar mount point at /mnt/ramfs for JACK to use for FIFOs;
it doing so requires the setting of a compile-time option. Is this
just a muddy description of what to do that should be condensed a bit,
and my problem is that I do need to recompile jackd? Or am I missing
something else here?

Thanks,

-c
