you're right. i misread the message i was thinking of. but i am sure jaroslav said something about not understanding why a certain piece of code was a problem with/without JACK. >I also have experienced crashed (well, freezes) with jack in RT mode, >but I don't think it has to do anything with alsa. all the evidence we have on jackit-dev points to this. people can switch between ALSA versions, and it crashes with a newer copy and not with an earlier one. there are some suggestions that its a kernel+ALSA problem. the fact that it only happens in RT mode suggests some interaction of SCHED_FIFO scheduling and kernel locking or something like that. --p ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
