Hi, I have problems with configuring virmidi and running jack. According to howto from: http://linux-sound.org/quick-toots/4-sequencers_and_softsynths/quick-toot-midisynth_howto.html I have set /etc/modules.conf like this: above snd-ice1712 snd-pcm-oss # Configure support for OSS /dev/sequencer and # /dev/music (aka /dev/sequencer2) # (Takashi Iwai advises that it is unnecessary # to alias these services beyond the first card, i.e., card 0) alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss # Configure card 1 (second card) as a virtual MIDI card alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1 alias snd-card-1 snd-virmidi alias sound-slot-0 snd-ice1712 Then I want to run qjackctl as usual, but I get an error: could not connect to jack server as client and when I type in console: [root@pececik piotr]# jackd -d alsa -d hw:0 jackd 0.94.3 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 loading driver .. creating alsa driver ... hw:0|hw:0|1024|2|48000|0|0|nomon|swmeter|rt|32bit ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1055:(snd_pcm_hw_open) open /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p failed: No such file or directory jackd: pcm.c:687: snd_pcm_nonblock: Assertion `pcm' failed.
