Well, I think so - after all this trouble I need to do something with it.<G>. 
 However, I still would like to know why I have to do it as root but until 
that gets answered I'll just su - and run jack, then go to another xterm and 
run ardour.  It would be nice if jack would go to the background  The root 
requirement bothers me.

Before I do anything with it I'm going back to read the Ardour help and 
ProTools reference manual I downloaded so I can figure out how to record!  I 
tried to record but couldn't get  the connections correct so I got nothing.

Of the others I'll probably also try Audacity as it seemed to work for me 
better and I could make sense of it.  Rezound just doesn't click with me and 
sweep seems to be more an editor than letting you record.  I have to record 
into a selction but I don't have one when I'm starting new!
