-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 This is not a big deal, because I decided to use ecasound instead (which works! yay!) but here's the details just incase anyone is interested: $ jack_capture cannot read result for request type 6 from server (No such file or directory) jackd watchdog: timeout - killing jackd Killed JACK error: zombified - calling shutdown handler jack_mgr_shutdown_cb: JACK server shut us down; telling server to quit Cleaning up JACK server shutdown detected, reopening in OSS mode JACK error: cannot send request type 7 to server JACK error: cannot read result for request type 7 from server (Broken pipe) jack_mgr_destroy: could not deactivate jack client JACK error: cannot send request type 7 to server JACK error: cannot read result for request type 7 from server (Broken pipe) Finished Huh? All other jack apps I have: rosegarden, fluidsynth, qjackctl, ardour, hydrogen, swami, etc, all work perfectly well. Ecasound works with no problems. But jack_capture tends to crash the whole server. Sad.
