Hi Glen,

This may be an issue with the RT options? If jack is not running when you
start bristol then the jack API will start it using the current user ID and
permissions, and the bristol engine can connect to it. If the daemon is
already running then you need sufficient privileges to connect, and you may
have differences between the RT and non-RT systems. If the engine fails to
connect then it will exit gracefully, and, in the release you have, if the
brighton GUI fals to connect to bristol it exits rather ungracefully. This
exit is now a little nicer, but the issue remains the failure of bristol to
link to jack, I think.

What happens if you start bristol as root? I will look into the error
message on line 188, I don't think it is the cause, just a syntax error in
the wrapper script.

Regards,
Nick.
