Hi Sasha, there seems to be several problems here. 1. starting muse w/o jack 2. starting jack with sudo, with -d hw:0 3. starting jack without -d hw:0 ----- Number 3 would probably work better if you added the -d hw:0 Number 2... I've never tried to sudo it, try as "normal" root. Though the errors you get may suggest that there is something wrong with your soundcard-setup. Number 1... well, the data printed suggests your card is severely misconfigured... I have no good clues to what may be the problem. What is in your /etc/modules.conf? What other programs have you gotten to work that proves that audio works? /Robert Wednesday 22 October 2003 16.08 skrev Sascha Retzki: > Hi! > I've tried to start muse and it failed to start alsa audio with these error > msgs: $ sudo muse > JACK ERROR: cannot connect to jack server > JACK ERROR: cannot connect to default JACK server > initJackAudio: failed: jack server not running? > NO Config File </home/lantis/.MusE> > ALSA: samplerate 44100 not available, using 0 > ALSA: set buffer size, req: 3072 got: 0 > ALSA: Unable to install hw params: > $ > > And THIS is my jackd output: > $ sudo jackd -d alsa -d hw:0 > jackd 0.75.0 > Copyright 2001-2003 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 > loading driver .. > creating alsa driver ... hw:0|hw:0|1024|2|48000|nomon|swmeter|rt > open > jackd: pcm.c:5959: snd_pcm_mmap_begin: Assertion `pcm && areas && offset && > frames' failed. received signal 6 during shutdown (ignored) > $ > > If I start jackd with "jackd -d alsa" : > JACK compiled with System V SHM support > loading driver .. > creating alsa driver ... default|default|1024|2|48000|nomon|swmeter|rt > open > ALSA lib pcm_plug.c:727:(snd_pcm_plug_hw_refine_schange) Unable to find an > usable access for 'default' ALSA lib > pcm_plug.c:727:(snd_pcm_plug_hw_refine_schange) Unable to find an usable > access for 'default' ALSA: mmap-based access is not possible for the > capture stream of this audio interface ALSA: cannot configure capture > channel > starting engine > engine driver not set; cannot start > cannot start main JACK thread > jack main caught signal 15 > received signal 11 during shutdown (ignored) > $ > > And thats why I am here: NOTHING seems to work :((((((( .
