Hi Bal. I missed your original post about this problem. You say it won't work 
on any distro you've tried. Will you post the hardware your running it on, 
CPU, memory, soundcard, platform. I presume that Alsa is working ok, and that 
you can play CD's, use Alsaplayer to play soundfiles, etc.

You can post the output of:
cat /proc/asound/cards      and
cat /proc/asound/version

Moving back to Qjackctl. Does it now start when you click on the desktop icon 
without any of the midi connections errors? When you press start on it, does 
the jack server start without any errors? This is with the realtime box 
unchecked, and the command to start the server in Qjackctls setup as "jackd". 

What happens now when you try to start Rosegarden4? Does the GUI for it open? 
And if so. When does the system freeze up?

Thats enough for now. Nigel.
