Sorry, no, WICD wouldn't help that. It might help if you're having
netjack network problems because other processes on the same PC are
unnecessarily generating network traffic. Maybe. I've never used
netjack, so don't know how it might interact with other network processes.

OK.
Sorry, for the late reply, I wasn't on the good machine these last days.
I'm not sure to understand what you mean. I've been googling a bit about
wicd (which I already heard about), and I found it was kind of a network
manager, in some ways, but I didn't see anything telling I can use it
with netjack. Perhaps I misoriented you when typing "reloading
netmanager", I was actually talking about:
jack_load netmanager
and
jack_unload netmanager On Sat, Feb 13, 2010 at 03:45:37PM -0500, David

Just closing this topic off in case someone stumbles upon it from an
internet search: I monitored my network traffic and found mountd
transmitted, I think every 20s, from port 771 to 2049 and that
coincided with my xruns. I umounted my 2 NFS drives and haven't had an
xrun since -- at least not with 2 channels.
Actually, I re-open it!
I use netjack2 for weird purposes which doesn't share any audio stream,
actually. Only MIDI and jack_transport sync, finally.
Though, I sometimes get xruns, which can be stopped by unloading the
netmanager, and relaunching everything on the slave machine (which runs
with the -S mode), and then reloading netmanager.
Couldn't find what it came from.....
