</i>has anyone thought about setting up a jack/ardour/pulseaudio howto
somewhere? as i mentioned in another post earlier in this thread, i
don think there is a potential userbase -- podcasters & audio editors --
for whom ardour would be a really excellent solution, if they could just
get it to work without lots of fiddling with sounddaemons. is there
anyone who agrees with me?

There was a guide on the forums that worked for Feisty:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4795013">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4795013</a><br>
<br>
Unfortunately, I have not been able to set it up yet though, not even
on Gutsy nor Hardy - so I cannot help you directly...<br>
<br>
If someone could help here it would be greatly appreciated! <br>
<br>
JACK through PulseAudio for me is the ability to easily jam using a
midi keyboard between ordinary laptop work - if there is 20ms latency I
really don't care - as long as I can jam to Youtube-videos etc...<br>
