Yep.. I have got 2.6.1 working okay with Jack 0.9.4 and Hydrogen 0.8.1.. I am using the realtime LSM module rather than the hand-edit option though. http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-audio-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg11375.html Also, for some reason I need to define interface as hw:0 rather than default in qjackctl or jack stops frequently...
