This is a non-critical update. The only change since version 2.4.3 is the disabling of the optional device registration dialog. The data gathered is of peripheral value these days, making its ongoing collection unnecessary. FFADO version 2.4.4 is available as a tarball: http://ffado.org/files/libffado-2.4.4.tgz Formal release notes are at http://ffado.org/posts/ffado-2.4.4-release/ Regards Jonathan (on behalf of the FFADO project) From ajay.malik at oronetworks.com Sun Aug 9 18:22:43 2020 From: ajay.malik at oronetworks.com (Ajay Malik) Date: Sun, 9 Aug 2020 09:22:43 -0700 Subject: [Jackaudio] FFADO version 2.4.4 released In-Reply-To: <20200809092410.GG17532@marvin.atrad.com.au> References: <20200809092410.GG17532@marvin.atrad.com.au> Message-ID: unsubscribe On Sun, Aug 9, 2020 at 2:24 AM Jonathan Woithe wrote: > The FFADO project announces the availability of FFADO version 2.4.4. > > This is a non-critical update.

I realise this may be considered a form of heresy, but I am attempting to get jack running with a dummy backend on Ubuntu 18.04 under windows subsystem for linux 2 (WSL2). Remarkably this does actually work. However, only if I execute jack as root (i.e. using sudo) can it obtain permissions for real-time scheduling, which is not ideal. I think I have all the normal Ubuntu settings in place but don’t know what differences might exist between normal Ubuntu and the version that exists with WSL2. The output of running realtimeconfigquickscan is pasted below, Does anyone have any pointers of where to look? Many thanks, Alastair P.S. Apologies if this or something like it has been discussed before. Is there a way to search the archives of this list that I am missing? $ perl ./realTimeConfigQuickScan.pl == GUI-enabled checks == Checking if you are root... no - good Checking filesystem 'noatime' parameter... 4.19.104 kernel - good (relatime is default since 2.6.30) cat: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor: No such file or directory cat: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor: No such file or directory cat: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/cpufreq/scaling_governor: No such file or directory cat: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu3/cpufreq/scaling_governor: No such file or directory cat: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu4/cpufreq/scaling_governor: No such file or directory cat: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu5/cpufreq/scaling_governor: No such file or directory cat: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu6/cpufreq/scaling_governor: No such file or directory cat: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu7/cpufreq/scaling_governor: No such file or directory Checking CPU Governors...
