[psynth-user] error trying to use Jack.

[Justin Travis]

ok a few details about trying to use jack with the program. I'm running ubuntu 11.04 AMD 64 version on an hp Athlon II quad core system with 5 GB of RAM. When I try to start psychosynth using the jack option I get the following messages......

being kinda new I'm not sure what it means, but that's what happens.  Any clues?
Thanks from a persistant newb.
