Finally got latest Ardour CVS configured and compiled, thanks for the advices to all of you. But now my problem is that when start JACK with "jackd -d alsa" and then run Ardour as root, it gives me this message in Ardour: "JACK has either been shutdown or it disconnected Ardour because Ardour was not fast enough. You should save the session and restart both JACK and Ardour." Console says: "Ardour/GTK 0.374.6 running with libardour 0.681.5 Loading UI configuration file /usr/local/etc/ardour/ardour_ui.rc Loading system configuration file /usr/local/etc/ardour/ardour_system.rc Loading user configuration file /root/.ardour/ardour.rc The font "-*-charter-bold-r-*-*-*-180-*-*-*-*-*-*" does not support all the required character sets for the current locale "fi_FI" (Missing character set "ISO8859-15") (Missing character set "ISO8859-15") The font "-*-charter-bold-r-*-*-*-180-*-*-*-*-*-*" does not support all the required character sets for the current locale "fi_FI" (Missing character set "ISO8859-15") (Missing character set "ISO8859-15") The font "-*-charter-bold-r-*-*-*-180-*-*-*-*-*-*" does not support all the required character sets for the current locale "fi_FI" (Missing character set "ISO8859-15") (Missing character set "ISO8859-15") engine unexpectedly shutdown; thread exiting JACK has shutdown Ardour. Signal 2 received ardour is killing itself for a clean exit Killed" and JACK gives me this message: "could not complete playback of 1024 frames cycle execution failure, exiting telling signal thread that the engine is done jack main caught signal 1" Ok, I got one infamous integrated soundcard by VIA, but Jack worked on that when I got version 0.62 (now 0.72.4). Whoa, thanks already! Esa -- Esa Linna <denzo@xxxxxxxx>
