[ardour-users] Ardour can't connect to JACK

[akarl]

Hi,

Managed to compile and install Ardour from the nightly tarball, but I 
cannot run it. Any clues about the following?

$ ardour
Ardour/GTK 0.9beta29
    (built using 0.598.1 with libardour 0.894.1)

ardour: [ERROR]: Could not connect to JACK server as  "ardour"

I use Fedora Core 4.
