Hello, Yesterday I hooked up my Ubuntu Studio box to the internet again for the first time in about a month and a half so I could get some files and programs, and also to update the system. There were a lot of updates, and the computer froze about 4/5 through installing the files, so I forced a restart.
Restarted. Opening Synaptic gave me a message telling me to run "dpkg --configure -a". I did that and it seemed to finish installing the programs as it would normally. Now when I try to start Jack with RT enabled, it fails. It works without RT, and it worked before either way. I've messed around with the settings, but so far to no avail. Here is the output of the Messages window: 20:18:47.587 Patchbay deactivated. 20:18:47.680 Statistics reset. 20:18:47.718 ALSA connection graph change. 20:18:47.915 ALSA connection change. 20:19:24.476 Startup script... 20:19:24.479 artsshell -q terminate 20:19:24.926 Startup script terminated with exit status=256. 20:19:24.927 JACK is starting... 20:19:24.928 /usr/bin/jackd -R -dfreebob -r44100 -p1024 -n3 -D 20:19:24.943 JACK was started with PID=5732. jackd 0.109.2 Copyright 2001-2005 Paul Davis and others. jackd comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; see the file COPYING for details JACK compiled with System V SHM support. cannot use real-time scheduling (FIFO at priority 10) [for thread -1210870096, from thread -1210870096] (1: Operation not permitted) cannot create engine 20:19:24.958 JACK was stopped successfully. 20:19:24.959 Post-shutdown script... 20:19:24.961 killall jackd jackd: no process killed 20:19:25.374 Post-shutdown script terminated with exit status=256. 20:19:26.958 Could not connect to JACK server as client. - Overall operation failed. - Unable to connect to server. Please check the messages window for more info. I am using a Pentium 4 machine with 512MB ram, 58GB on this partition. I've got a FireWire card in a PCI slot to which a Presonus FireBox is attached. This is the first time I've had problems with the audio. I'm using the RT kernel I've got realtime checked in Jack settings, with 3 periods at 1024 frames each. I've been using the freebob driver. All these settings are fine when realtime is not enabled. In a few days I am going to need to record about 8 tracks simultaneously (2 fireboxes), and I can't see that happening without realtime scheduling. thanks, Phil -- 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
