Hi Joel, I’m afraid I’m still not entirely sure what made it work in the end, which does kind of worry me in case i run into this again. To recap: my system is ubuntu 17.10 minimal, clean install. the only extra packages I installed are sshd, alsa, and jackd1. (if i remember correcly, not sitting behind my linix machine right now).
And a realtime kernel 4.13.x I believe. Not much more. The last problem i had was this error: connect(2) call to /dev/shm/jack-0/default/jack_0 failed (err=No such file or directory) google told me someone with the same problem solved it by installing either libjack-jackd2-dev or libjack-dev. in installed libjack-dev, but it didn’t help so i removed it again. A few reboots later i did not get the error anymore. So i’m still kind of puzzled why it is working now, or even why i got the error in the first place.. cheers, Fokke > On Aug 3, 2018, at 00:01 , Joel Roth <jo...@pobox.com> wrote: > > On Thu, Aug 02, 2018 at 09:44:00PM +0200, Fokke de Jong wrote: >> Hi all, >> >> after a lot of voodoo, black magic (and some reboots). >> Its seems jack is not complaining anymore, and everything is working again! > > I'm glad you got jackd going.
