I have trouble understanding what that means, jack2 is an implementation of a jack protocol server, the original jackd is also an implementation of a jack protocol server, they are functionally interchangeable, but you can only have one or the other installed on your machine, not both. Perhaps that wording means that your distribution has jack2, with both jackd and jackdbus installed. That is OK, but as you seem to have found out sometimes an application will automatically start jackdbus which then limits how you have to interact with the already running server. > But, I'm still a little unclear on what order to start things up in.

There are configuration options to allow you to choose whether you want to start jackd or jackdbus, there are convenient start and stop controls, the ability to save preset combinations of jackd parameters you want to use (sample rate, latency, audio interface, etc.), you can easily show or hid the console messages, open a window to make connections. Basically everything you need to interact with jack in one convenient place. My usual process would be start qjackctl, load whichever preset I needed, start jack, then start all the jack using applications I wanted. -- Chris Caudle _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
