Re: Hi there, I need help to configure Ubuntustudio on my machine

2012-04-08 Thread Matthias Beyer

Hi there again!

I still have problems.
I figured out, that Jack is the Problem: I cannot run jack. I do not 
know why.
Jack is not started after booting, so I start it on my own by typing 
jackd -R -n jserv -p 128 -d alsa -d hw:Juli -s


It results in the following error:

I do not know what this tells me. If I write hw:0 or hw:1 instead of

stuff, I was on several IRC ubuntu channels and posted help requests in 
a german ubuntu board, but noone told me helpful stuff. They just write 
use qjackctl and play around with qjackctl, but what does it help if 
Jack is not started?

Please helpme!

I need help to configure my Ubuntustudio on my machine. Currently, I 
have _nothing_, just installed it on my Machine.

It's an Oneiric Ocelot Ubuntu Studio.

2012-04-08 Thread Pablo Fernandez
I am confused. Those messages unknown PCM default / unknown PC
Juli... This looks like an alsa problem, i.e., at a lower level than
jack or pulseaudio.

I would try disabling .asoundrc files [1]. There might be two of them:

/etc/asound.conf  (probably not existent, but just in case)
~/.asoundrc

The second one, from your report:

# ALSA library configuration file
# Include settings that are under the control of asoundconf(1).
# (To disable these settings, comment out this line.)
/home/matthias/.asoundrc.asoundconf

So, what happens if you comment out the last line? (And then reboot,
or restart the user session)
