The current manpage for jackd does not mention the term "alsarawmidi" at all, only seq or raw. Searching the current source tree for jackd v2 I found a description in JackALSARawMidiDriver.cpp that it was an "Alternative ALSA raw MIDI backend." I do not see a way to instantiate that separately, however, the command line processing has only entries for "seq" and "raw" as arguments to the ALSA driver. In any case, the correct answer is still to not use any -X argument at all, let a2midid control the ALSA MIDI data and act as a jack client, at least for jackd v2. -- Chris Caudle _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
