Hi,

Not sure this is the right forum, but here goes:

Since I need(want) features (namely alsa_in/out) in Jack 116 and Ubuntu
Studio comes with 109 I need to build the latest.

The following is from the FAQ at www.jackaudio.org with my questions mixed
in:

---------------
{Prerequisites
    * 2.4, 2.5 or 2.6 series kernel with tmpfs turned on (CONFIG_TMPFS)}

Ok, so I have 2.4 from the Ubuntu Studio


{    * Shared memory file system mounted on /dev/shm. add the following to
/etc/fstab to get it mounted at boot:

        shmfs       /dev/shm     shm    defaults        0       0

            (Note: you may have to make the /dev/shm directory)
}

Ok, so /dev/shm exists, but is mounted as devshm already. Adding the above
and rebooting shows no errors in any log that I found, but only devshm
shows up when I "mount -l"


{Once you have the correct shmfs support, you should be able to build jack
with the following sequence of commands:

sh ./autogen.sh
./configure
make
make install
}

Obviously these get typed in a terminal session. But:

* as root?
* what directory should I be in?
* where do I extract the tar ball that has the source?

Haven't done anything like this in a UNIX like system since the late
1980's...so the gray cells are a bit rusty.;)
