I was rather hoping there might be some way of getting Jack itself to abort under these conditions. I do use an RT kernel on the main machines, and normal input is completely unresponsive, so trying to get to a terminal or start another session with the three finger salute is impossible. I've not thought of trying to ssh from another machine - never even tried that before for normal operations, so it could be 'interesting' :o At the moment I'm not inclined to do too much experimenting due to only just recovering from a recent disaster (power cut in the middle of an upgrade). -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
