You talk about the "killall jackd" issue. Well, killing jackd is not my problem. My problem is, that jackd is not stable with a 64bit-Dualcore-CPU. It doesn't really matter, if I can't restart jackd after it crashed. But it DOES matter, that I can't work in a stable environment as I used to with my old CPU.
I guess you mean, that you read "killall jackd" in the messages of qjackctl. But that only means, that after jackd crashed the "killall jackd" command is executed, like it is configured in the "setup"->"options"-menu in qjackctl. If you did, I'm glad to hear, that my hardware is working alright. The software will be fixed someday, I'll just have to wait... > Anything else is fine and also the quality of Reverbs and > Synth is much better, latencies are smaller etc. ... and no crashes. > I'm working with some xruns at 2,5 ms and with nearly or exactly NO xrun at 10 ms (with the old CPU). That's alright for me, you know. If the quality of any OS-Reverb doesn't fit to my needs, I'm using my T.C.Electronic M300 - guess there's no reverb "for free" on windows that can reach that. I don't care about synths, but I guess zynaddsubfx and AMS was more than perfect if I would. I'm fed up with that licence nonsens and other bullshit on non-OpenSource platforms. I once tried to make music with Windows and MacOS. But I can surely say, that I had never such a complete and reliable DAW than now - for free. > I guess you should use your old CPU again, if you like to go on with > Linux for multimedia. If you were fine with it, why did you changed it? > Are you kidding? Well, if not: Because I can use more tracks and plugins in ardour...? I'm looking forward to use my machine as a digital mixer. The CPU I've bought should give me the power I need. By the way: Yesterday I tried the 32bit 64Studio-2.0 live without any problems with my new CPU! Because I have another recording tomorrow, I'm using the "old" CPU, again. When the weekends over, I'll switch to a 32bit installation. But I'll switch back to 64bit, when it's getting stable, again. In case, we're talking about the same problem and there is no defective motherboard or cpu, of course. Have you tried 32bit? I know, this is an unsatisfactory situation not using the full power of your hardware. On the other hand, it's so easy to switch to 32bit and back if you're using a seperate /home partition... :) Mitsch _______________________________________________ 64studio-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-users
