My setup:
AMD 64 X2
2 GB DDR2 800 mhz
M-Audio Firewire Solo using Freebob
Sample rate: 96,000
Periods: 3
Frames: 64
Latency: 2 ms
Realtime checked in Qjackctl
Priority = 89
Qjackctl 0.2.21
# ps -C jackd -cmL
shows:

As I understand it, the FF indicates realtime.

Note that in the first instance it's an underrun; 2nd instance an overrun, which seems odd to me (ie I'd think with the X runs happening on such a precise schedule it would show the same problem each time).
I've tried using System Manager to track down any processes which might be scheduled to run every 10 mins and can't pin down anything. I also tried stopping ntpd but the problem continued.
Other programs which run simultaneously:
- Beryl
- Mythtv backend
Using Ardour neither increases the X runs nor eliminates them - they still pop up at 10 min intervals.
Any ideas or suggestions? Could Freebob be the problem? Are there system processes known to run at 10 min intervals that could be interfering?
Also, not sure this has anything whatsoever to do with my X runs, but Qjackctl also reports a whole series of:
QTextCursor::gotoParagraph Index: 49 out of range
load = 4.1724 max usecs: 26.000, spare = 640.000
load = 4.0381 max usecs: 26.000, spare = 640.000
load = 3.9710 max usecs: 26.000, spare = 640.000
QTextCursor::gotoParagraph Index: 49 out of range
QTextCursor::gotoParagraph Index: 49 out of range
I also tried running JACK from console, with the same results.
Driving me nuts as every time I need to do a take, I have to wait until an X run hits, then I have a 10 min window to record, which leaves me thinking about the impending X run, rather than the part I'm playing!
Many thanks!
