Title:
  arm CPUs get "FATAL: cannot locate cpu MHz in /proc/cpuinfo"

Status in jackd2 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in jackd2 package in Arch Linux:
  New

Bug description:
  Trying to run the Supercollider http://supercollider.github.io/ sound
  synthesis program on an ARM-based NVIDIA Jetson TK1, I received this
  error.  I also received this when I tried jack_simple_client

  FATAL: cannot locate cpu MHz in /proc/cpuinfo

  This is from the Jack Library.  
  $ apt-cache policy libjack-jackd2-0:armhf
  libjack-jackd2-0:
    Installed: 1.9.9.5+20130622git7de15e7a-1ubuntu1
    Candidate: 1.9.9.5+20130622git7de15e7a-1ubuntu1
    Version table:
   *** 1.9.9.5+20130622git7de15e7a-1ubuntu1 0
          500 http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ trusty/main armhf Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
  (updated in 2013)

  The issue is fixed in the latest source by this checkin: (from March, 2014)
  https://github.com/jackaudio/jack2/commit/d425d8035b761b4a362c538c41eca874ff4995f0

  I have found this latest source works for me if I compile and install
  jack by hand.  So, I think updating the libjack-jackd2-0:armhf library
  would be desirable.  Until then, all ARM-based systems can't use jack.
