i don't know if they maybe refer to the preemptive patches. those are
two disjunct set of patches. which can be applied to the same kernel
though [i'm running vanilla 2.4.22 patched with andrews pacthes, teh
capabilities patch and the preemp patch]. check, the jack faq for some
hints on LL kernels [i think it has some links to the relevant sites]. I
didn't try 2.6.x though yet, so i don't know what's included..

yes, jackstart should be suid root. "make install" should have done that
for you though [if you compiled from source]..

yes, i think so, just pass it the filename on the commandline. or look
up the options [man fluidsynth]..
