I made some progress over the weekend... On 10/6/05, Karsten Wiese <annabellesgarden(a)yahoo.de> wrote: Couldn't get that to run which isn't that important as I found other ways... Didn't had that installed either (until now)... As the system doesn't seem to freeze after the first jackd-start using mm-sources, I watched the syslog in one window and got some logs: Using 2.6.14-mm-rc1 with Preemption enabled I get "should not be here with count=0" in the syslog after some (short) time and jack stops working. The message comes from usbusx2yaudio.c (I added the relevant info to the c-file to definitly know its from there and not from the second file containing the same line). Also I do get a kernel-oops which kills my usb-bus (no mouse anymore, only touchpad remains). The snd-usb-usx2y-module can never be unloaded and sometimes the system freezes on this setup... Using the same kernel but without Preemption I get the same message from the usb-usx2y-driver as above shortly after I start jackd(*) and connect the ins with the outs. On second try of starting jackd I get "usb_submit_urb() returned -22" in syslog. Maybe that helps to tell me where I can enable more debug-output to investigate the driver/kernel... One of the other things I will try the next days is to test with the rather old 2.6.11* kernel as I know that that version works on my other two systems. Sorry for me making such a fuss, its just depressing paying a lot of money to get a state-of-the-art laptop and realizing that it doesn't even seem to be able to deal with slow usb1.1 hardware. Let me state that I am absolutely willing to help solving this problem (if it really is a usb-usx2y-on-amd64-problem). Only problem is that I don't have internet-connection at home and can't carry my tascam to work every day. Have a nice day, Arnold (*) Everytime I started jackd with "jackd -dalsa -dhw:2" -- visit http://dillenburg.dyndns.org/~arnold/ --- Wenn man mit Raubkopien Bands wie Brosis oder Britney Spears wirklich verhindern könnte, würde ich mir noch heute einen Stapel Brenner und einen Sack Rohlinge kaufen.
