Ardour problem

Hello!

I'm having trouble starting Ardour on my computer.
When i try to start Ardour it crashes and this is what i get:

WARNING: Your system has a limit for maximum amount of locked memory!
This might cause Ardour to run out of memory before your system runs out of memory. You can view the memory limit with 'ulimit -l', and it is normally controlled by /etc/security/limits.conf

I tried with installing gtk-pixbuf, but it's still not working.
I'm running Arch i686, and i upgraded system 3 hours ago.
Can anyone help me?

Re: Ardour problem

Nvm...
I installed ardour 2.8 using PKGBUILD and it is working now.
