Stéphane -- sorry to veer so wildly off-topic... but jackdmp is
expected to work on Solaris, right? Is it actively tested? Is it
expected to build with Sun compilers, or only with gcc?
I switched a machine from Linux to OpenSolaris a few months back and
at the time failed to get jackdmp working on it, but I didn't give it
much time because it wasn't all that important then. I'd like to
revisit it though, and wondered what I should reasonably expect.

Right now with gcc yes. At some point I succeeded with sun compiler hacking
"waf" build tool (that was not well supported at that time).
I still check SVN from time to time and it is supposed to work correctly yes.

Should work.
Backends are currently 2 and using the OSS 4 API:
- jack_oss.o one ( so "jack -S -R -d oss blab blah...) a one thread driver, initially
developed for RTL and tested on a MADI card
- later on I switched to a more general (and probably more exact) 2 threads model. It got
called "boomer' (Boomer is the SUN derived from OSS audio API..). So "jack
-S -R -d boomer blab blah....
Both should work on OpenSolaris with 4 Front OSS. I never tried with Boomer since my
internal card was not supported at that time

OK. I do have Boomer (using OpenSolaris dev repositories, currently
build snv_131)... but do I gather from the above that I don't
necessarily have to use the Boomer back-end? so if I have trouble
with it, I ought to be able to get away with the old-fashioned OSS
one?
(Sound generally does work on the machine, including OSS4 software mixing.)

Boomer and OSS are actually quite similar. Both "oss" and "boomer"
jack2 backend have been tested on an OSS installation only, never on Boomer. So real test
are needed.
