hi all I am using a terratec phase x24 firewire sound card with an IBM laptop. It runs Ubuntu studio, the latest version, I keep it updated.
My problem is that sometimes jack just stops suddenly. It just print some crap symbols at qjackctl message window and then I get a Shutdown notification there. After this I need to unplug the sound card to be able to start again Jack correctly. Sometimes I need to plug/unplug many times many times to get it up again. In general I get almost no XRUNS at all. DSP loads is 16%, realtime mode is on, sample rate 48000 and buffer size 1024. Today I noticed that updatedb process was running in the background when I first got this error, and it seems to me that it was not until this process finished that I was able to get jack up. After this problem I decided to test how long it runs before crashing. It has been running fine several times for around 30-45 min. Then it stops and I need to unplug the sound card again. any ideas about what could cause this? or any suggestion where i should look at? I checked dmesg and I can see some stuff there but I am not sure if this is just related to me pluging in and out the sound card. I am wondering if there is some background process that I could disable to make freebob more stable. I have a live performance in ten days and it would be a real pity if jack crashes during it. thanks! enrike -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
