problems using JACK

First, is it right that you pretty much have to run jack (and therefore all audio apps) as root? I can't get it started as any other user - it starts but the clients can't find it. Second, is there anyway to get Arts to use Jack? (and then, any way to get ESD to use it?) Call me radical, but

I noticed that if i open a terminal session, check the umask, it will not be set according to what i put in /et

RE: KDE Fonts Too Large

I had this same issue until I learned how to use defoma (well, the gui for it, actually) to add fonts to the system. As it turned out I only have about 6 fonts, none of which displayed properly by default. With defoma I added all of my fonts from my MS partition as well as a bunch of .deb package
