[PlanetCCRMA] Fedora FC6 and realtime kernel - MOTU drivers

[David Scott]

I found this page very helpful when I ran into the same problem.  I 
managed to get it working so that now JACK and Qsynth now prompt me for 
root privileges on startup.  I don't know about Ardour, I assume the 
solution would be similar.

Let me know if you have trouble and maybe I can help, because I did get 
it working.

I guess the reason for all this is because ALSA is in the kernel now.  
If anyone else has a better solution I would be delighted to try it.
