Dear community, I hope this is the right adress for my question, because it's not so much about alsa but about jack and firewire. I'm using Ubuntu Oneiric and I have a firewire soundcard, the edirol fa-66. I have installed jackd1, which includes the ffado-drivers for firewire modules. Off course I have clicked the "enable raw1394 access" in the ubuntu studio controls. When I start qjackctl with the firewire drivers, it stops immediately. I can read in the message window of qjack: cannot load driver module firewire When I type ls -al /dev/raw1394 and sudo chmod 777 /dev/raw1394 I get ls: Zugriff auf /dev/raw1394 nicht möglich: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden (in english: can't get acess do /dev/raw139, file or folder not found) Somewhere I have read the one should do: sudo ln -s /dev/fw0 /dev/raw1394 After that I get for ls -al /dev/raw1394 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 2012-01-25 08:46 /dev/raw1394 -> /dev/fw0 But I have still the same problem! Jack "says" always loading driver .. SSE2 detected libffado 2.999.0- built Oct 10 2011 08:11:23 firewire ERR: Error creating FFADO streaming device cannot load driver module firewire But a few months ago everything worked excellent! Does somenone have an idea, which could be the first step in solving my problem?
