Hi, ?I want to use the JACK soundserver. I'm able to connect to the normal analog output but not to spdif. I use the snd-intel8x0 driver for my onboard nforce2 soundchip. > ash-2.05b# cat ?/proc/asound/devices > ? 1: ? ? ? : sequencer > ? 0: [0- 0]: ctl > ?18: [0- 2]: digital audio playback > ?25: [0- 1]: digital audio capture > ?16: [0- 0]: digital audio playback > ?24: [0- 0]: digital audio capture > ?33: ? ? ? : timer > bash-2.05b# Using the alsa output plugin in xmms I can choose hw:0,2 then the sound comes out through spdif, but I don't know how to do this with JACK. I tried qjackctl (grafical controller for JACK and ALSA) and qjackconnect (grafical patchbay) and via console by typing 'jackd -d alsa -d hw:0,2' (same with hw:1 and hw:2) but this doesn't work, neither as user nor as root. ?via console I get the following output: ?> ash-2.05b$ jackd -d alsa -d hw:1 -S > > ?jackd 0.98.1 > ?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:2|hw:2|1024|2|48000|0|0|nomon|swmeter|-|16bit > ?jackd: pcm.c:690: snd_pcm_nonblock: Assertion `pcm' failed. > ?Abgebrochen > ?bash-2.05b$ qjackctl displays following errors: > 13:16:14.915 /usr/bin/jackd -R -dalsa -dhw:0,2 -r48000 -p1024 -n2 -S -i2 > -o2 13:16:14.936 JACK was started with PID=12828 (0x321c). > jackd 0.98.1 > 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 .. > apparent rate = 48000 > creating alsa driver ... hw:0,2|hw:0,2|1024|2|48000|2|2|nomon|swmeter|-| 16bit > ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1155:(snd_pcm_hw_open) open /dev/snd/pcmC0D2c failed: No such file or directory > jackd: pcm.c:690: snd_pcm_nonblock: Assertion `pcm' failed. > 13:16:14.994 JACK was stopped successfully. > 13:16:16.966 Could not connect to JACK server as client. Is there some special configuration needed in '/etc/asound.conf' Please help me, if it works I want to write a howto in the gentoo user forum cause there is to little information about JACK and JACK is definitly a great leap forward considering the sound quality.

You can't excactly see what it is, but when you take it home to check it up its malodor blurts out it's true nature. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
