this happens because when something just works somebody at ubuntu feels the uncontrollable urge to mess things up...
explanation: in ubuntu 10.04 developers have moved the nice values related to audio priority from the limits.conf file to the /limits.d/audio.conf file BUT they didn't update the jack audio connection kit package accordingly. workaround: navigate to /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf file, open it, copy the desired nice values, go one folder back, open the limits.conf file, paste the values in the file and save it. start jack. done. solution: update the jack audio connection kit package OR move the nice values back to the limits.conf file. -- Jack Audio Connection Kit not work out of the box https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/601593 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
