Ah, okay.

Gotcha. I was surprised it worked in FBSD. But I've hit other issues,
after long run times both OSes seem to fill swap. Haven't had a chance to
do more testing to figure out what's causing it.

I'm headed that way. Lots of deps (x11 stuff) as most likely it comes
packaged with a gui tool. No biggie. Thanks for the heads up. I looked at
it and it looks like what I need, jack doesn't suit this application.

Thanks again.
