[linux-audio-user] is Bristol JACK enabled? - Hallelujah! (kind of)

[Robert Persson]

I take back what I said about compiling Bristol.  I built the buildable bits 
and moved the whole directory into /opt (or you could edit the startup script 
and put it somewhere else).  Then, following the instructions in the thread 
mentioned below, I put "jacklaunch" before the 2 occurences of 
"bristolengine" at the end of the startBristol script and I now have a 
working Jackified Bristol.  Well kind of.  The audio engine and the jack 
routing work, but the midi doesn't.  Or at least it doesn't show up in the 
patchbay in qjackctl.

Any ideas on how to get midi working with Bristol and libjackasyn?  Is it a 
question of doing something to Bristol or is it something to do with how I 
configure alsa or my kernel?

Thanks
Robert
