i don't have time to register and correct every incorrect piece of

text that has accumulated in distro-specific wikis over the last

several years.
the doc in question is wrong about Group Sched, although its true that

it makes life more complicated and should probably be left off.

it also continues to perpetuate the "nice" error in limits.conf AND

provides a fixed value for memlock.
my best take on all this stuff will always be found at

http://jackaudio.org/faq and will updated from time to time as needed.
