Ardour 9.0 giving memory locked msg

Good afternoon
Ive just installed Ardour 9.0.0.
Before installing ardour I did a fresh install of Debian Trixie and then performed the steps outlined by Robin in the Configure Debian 12 topic
I installed jack
I also did the memory limits, please see screenshots

I have logged out a few times, but still getting the locked memory message

ulimit -l gives 8192
I checked and verified i belong to audio group

What should i now do please?
Many thanks

Are you in the audio group ?

yes i checked

Check to make sure there is not a file in the /etc/security/limits.d directory that overrides the changes you made in limits.conf.

Yes. Thank you.
The msg is gone now. I think it was creating the /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf file that actually fixed it
Exited to try it out now! :grinning:

I noticed that on my Fedora system, this didn’t work:

@audio hard memlock unlimited

but this does:

@audio - memlock unlimited

Many thanks for this
For me doing the rtprio 95 file seemed to fix the problem
