There's a recognised problem with qjackctl at the moment, not just in relation to the app, but the interaction with the latest Ubuntu, Jack, and the later version of the kernel. So don't panic, wiser heads than mine are working on it. On a brighter note, my thanks to Cory and the team, for a good

Hi what would you suggest then compiling a kernel with the options mentioned in the link you sent? or maybe switching to another distro? I dont have the standard kernel installed. Is it worth installing is it usable in terms of latency without xruns? On Tue, 2008-05-13 at 11:51 +0200, atuc wrote
