I have been using Jack & various audio programs for a while now. Monday (Feb. 2, 2011) Squeeze did a massive "upgrade" (I try to do upgrades regularly), the short of is, the sad all too redundant cry; no audio... Rosegarden crashes, Real Audio (Helix 11) crashes (except when I configure it to OSS in its' preferences panel, but still no sound), Jack will not start up (qjackctl), Ardour can not open (start) Jack, & probably other problems I have not yet encountered... As indicated above (& a more complete qjackctl output below), ALSA cannot load driver module alsa (my card is an Echo Mia, it is recognized in the various configuration panels, etc.). I really do not have a clue (where to look, or what to do), alsa may or may not be the problem, but since it (qjactctl) says it will not load, perhaps this might be some clue (?). Thanks much for any suggestions, directions, help, etc., in advance. Henry P.s., I have discovered that I can open ZynAddSubFX, jack will start up, still no sound, but midi function will work as illustrated graphically by ZynAddSubFX, & Rosegarden will function with midi record & playback. P.p.s., I did a post on the Debian Squeeze Multimedia forum several days after this occurred, apparently no one wants to touch it... not that I really blame anyone... with the (unavoidable on my part) dearth of information in this regard. & I also did check out & try most seeming relevant checks (& possible solutions) on this forums' "trouble shooting ALSA" page: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=53708 Willing to try any further suggestions... here or otherwise. jackd 0.118.0 Copyright 2001-2009 Paul Davis, Stephane Letz, Jack O'Quinn, Torben Hohn 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 Memory locking is unlimited - this is dangerous.
