[linux-audio-dev] jackd fails to start: cannot create shm segment /jack-shm-registry (No such file or directory)

Hi all, any ideas on this one? I have 2 soundcards configured: sblive rme 9652 my modules.conf looks like this: #install rme9652 Hammerfall buffer first before memory gets fragmented pre-install snd-hammerfall-mem alias eth0 3c59x probeall usb-interface usb-uhci alias /dev/nvidia* nvidia # ALSA native device support alias char-major-116 snd options snd major=116 cards_limit=3 alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 alias snd-card-1 snd-rme9652 alias snd-card-2 snd-usb-audio # OSS/Free compatibility # SBLIVE (Card 0) alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-0 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss #We'll use Hammerfall (Card 1) only as an ALSA device # USB-MIDI (Card 2) alias sound-slot-2 snd-2 alias sound-service-2-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-2-8 snd-seq-oss lsmod reflects that everything is loaded ok: Module Size Used by Tainted: P isofs 28244 1 (autoclean) zlib_inflate 21156 0 (autoclean) [isofs] nls_iso8859-1 3516 1 (autoclean) snd-pcm-oss 42468 0 (autoclean) snd-mixer-oss 14296 0 (autoclean) [snd-pcm-oss] snd-seq-oss 30016 0 (autoclean) (unused) snd-seq-midi 4576 0 (autoclean) (unused) udf 92128 0 (autoclean) sr_mod 16952 2 (autoclean) floppy 56028 0 (autoclean) snd-emu10k1-synth 5116 0 (unused) snd-emux-synth 32092 0 [snd-emu10k1-synth] snd-seq-midi-emul 6652 0 [snd-emux-synth] snd-seq-virmidi 4556 0 [snd-emux-synth] snd-seq-midi-event 5800 0 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi snd-seq-virmidi] snd-seq 44560 2 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi snd-emux-synth snd-seq-midi-emul snd-seq-virmidi snd-seq-midi-event] snd-usb-audio 47744 0 (unused) snd-rme9652 21164 0 snd-hammerfall-mem 2848 0 [snd-rme9652] snd-emu10k1 71348 0 [snd-emu10k1-synth] snd-pcm 79680 0 [snd-pcm-oss snd-usb-audio snd-rme9652 snd-emu10k1] snd-timer 19272 0 [snd-seq snd-pcm] snd-rawmidi 18304 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-seq-virmidi snd-usb-audio snd-emu10k1] snd-page-alloc 7960 0 [snd-emu10k1 snd-pcm] snd-util-mem 2984 0 [snd-emux-synth snd-emu10k1] snd-ac97-codec 40416 0 [snd-emu10k1] snd-seq-device 5740 0 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi snd-emu10k1-synth snd-emux-synth snd-seq snd-emu10k1 snd-rawmidi] snd-hwdep 6272 0 [snd-emu10k1] snd 41476 0 [snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi snd-emux-synth snd-seq-virmidi snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-usb-audio snd-rme9652 snd-emu10k1 snd-pcm snd-timer snd-rawmidi snd-util-mem snd-ac97-codec snd-seq-device snd-hwdep] parport_pc 25320 1 (autoclean) lp 8224 0 (autoclean) parport 35232 1 (autoclean) [parport_pc lp] agpgart 41248 3 (autoclean) nvidia 1593216 10 (autoclean) nfsd 74992 8 (autoclean) af_packet 16872 1 (autoclean) 3c59x 29936 1 (autoclean) supermount 74908 2 (autoclean) ide-scsi 11440 1 scsi_mod 105556 2 [sr_mod ide-scsi] ide-cd 33952 0 cdrom 31712 0 [sr_mod ide-cd] usb-midi 19256 0 (unused) soundcore 6500 0 [snd usb-midi] usbmouse 2936 0 (unused) keybdev 2720 0 (unused) mousedev 5332 1 hid 21028 0 (unused) input 5760 0 [usbmouse keybdev mousedev hid] usb-uhci 25932 0 (unused) usbcore 75616 1 [snd-usb-audio usb-midi usbmouse hid usb-uhci] rtc 8892 0 (autoclean) ext3 62252 3 jbd 41500 3 [ext3] my /etc/asound.conf looks like this: pcm.sblive { type hw card 0 } ctl.sblive { type hw card 0 } pcm.rme9652 { type hw card 1 } ctl.rme9652 { type hw card 1 } When I do: aplay -D sblive <filename> it works just fine.

The rpm for MDK (0.66) also has the same issue. Any help on this one is greatly appreciated! Thank you! Sincerely, Ivica Ico Bukvic, composer & multimedia sculptor http://meowing.ccm.uc.edu/~ico
