[PlanetCCRMA] Need help getting JACK working on FC8

hmm, as I was saying...

When I try to startup jack with the JACK Audio Connection Kit I get the
following output in the messages window:

*With realtime option selected in Setup:*

The only difference I can see is that JACK was reported to have actually
started with the realtime option turned off but not when it was turned on.
In either case though, the client could not connect to the server.

Here's my setup:

*JACK Audio Connection Kit version:**
rpm -q jack-audio-connection-kit*
jack-audio-connection-kit-0.109.12-0.svn1135_942.1.fc8.ccrma
jack-audio-connection-kit-0.109.12-0.svn1135_942.1.fc8.ccrma
- there seems to be 2 of them! Maybe because I have 2 versions of the
planetccma kernel installed. Could this cause problems?

*planetccrma kernel version:*
2.6.24.6-1.rt3.4.fc8.ccrmart.x86_64

*I have the following lines at the bottom of the /etc/security/limits.conf*
## Automatically appended by the Planet CCRMA jack-audio-connection-kit
* - rtprio 99
* - memlock 4194304
* - nice -10

*Snippets from /var/log/messages that might be relevant:*

I hope this is is enough information to spark some ideas about how to get
JACK working on my machine.
