They don't stack up, but even without that the automatic retrial is just a big nuisance. In 99.99% of all cases it doesn't help, it just keeps on repeating itself, and there is no way to stop it. At least, [Retry?] should be an option, but even that is quite useless as pressing [Start] again is just as easy. When starting Jackd fails, two windows pop up. My first reaction is to click [Setup] to find out what's wrong. So now we have three windows (plus the main one) open. Editing the setup (if the error is there) doesn't help, and getting out of all this is just a big mess as Qjackctl won't accept the main close button as long as any other of its windows is open (why ?), and they just keep coming back. So *please* remove this, it's just a big nuisance and I don't see in what situation it could ever be useful. Ciao, -- FA O tu, che porte, correndo si ?
