Hi! I have a problem with the new 2.6 kernels (namely 2.6.13 2.6.15.2 - didn't try 2.6.14). I'm running 2.6.11.8 now and everything works fine. But with the other kernels mplayer always tells me after a while, that jack client_thread is zombified. I've no idea what to do about it. I compiled jack exactly for that kernel (ALSA) and downloaded the latest CVS (0.100.9), but still no go. With my 2.6.11.8 the jack-cvs runs fine, without complaint. Any ideas? Where to start looking for the problem? What to test?
