Hi,

Hehehe, I had the same one this week-end. What happened for me is that
I used to run jackd only after login in with gdm. this week end I
tried launching it by login on a console (thus with the "login"
program) and I couldn't get realtime to work (with the same message).

check your configuration in /etc/pam.d : gdm, login and kdm should
include a line with something like :
session required /lib/security/pam_limits.so

Before this week, only /etc/pam.d/gdm had this line on my setup.

One last piece of advice : when modifying /etc/pam.d/login, be sure to
leave one console open, while testing your ability to login on
another. if you make a Big Mistake (TM) and logout, you won't be able
to login again (via login only of course, gdm/kdm/xdm should work).

Cheer,
