I don't really understand this need to "remove pulseaudio" Why remove it? I'm by no means an expert, but have dabbled with the various audio production tailored distros, and it seems very possible to use such systems with Jack as a primary sound server and Pulse feeding into Jack when needed KXStudio (which I've used a fair bit), uses Jack2 for it's main sound server for the low latency audio apps, and provides Pulseaudio for other "traditional desktop" apps You can simply use the Jack2 GUI tools to "wire up" the different apps. Prof. audio apps going directly to Jack2 others (Adobe Flash, for example) going through pulseaudio Pulseaudio feeding into Jack2 I think your issues stem from this (possibly misguided, but as I said, I'm no expert) belief that you need to remove pulseaudio -- Tony Atkinson Email: tatkinson...@googlemail.com PGP: F2B9184B
