Hmm, trying that, I get the RT thread error again, followed by the same
xruns.

[root@gimel mp3]# jackstart -R -d alsa -d hw -p 864

Also: should jackstart eventually return me to a prompt and run in the
background, or continue to hold onto the xterm session. Either would be
OK; I'm just unclear as towhich behavior to expect.
