I remotely remember something similar a while ago on one of my boxes, yet not sure if i had gotten the same error messages as you. But I had to restart my jack server as well (and hence all clients that were connected to it). Somehow I ended up setting jackd's priority to 89 (using the qjackctl GUI). Not sure if it was due to that error or for other reasons. Try using pd -rt -jack (realtime priority in Pd) and ask on the Pd mailing list as well: http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/ best, P _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
