[linux-audio-user] jack question

greetings all, i recently put together a new debian box (unstable with 2.4.19+ll), installed jack from cvs, installed freqtweak 0.4.5, ssm from cvs, pd from cvs, etc. and tried to get them to play together and have had no success. i start jack as follows: wazowski:/home/jcw# jackd -d alsa -d hw jackd 0.40.1 Copyright 2001-2002 Paul Davis and others. jackd comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; see the file COPYING for details loading driver .. creating alsa driver ... hw|1024|2|48000|swmon starting engine everything seems to be ok. then i launch freqtweak and get the following: wazowski:/home/jcw# freqtweak -i none,none -n ft JACK error: cannot connect input port: none -> _pcm:playback_18 JACK error: cannot connect output port: ft:in_1 -> alsa_pcm:playback_1 JACK error: cannot connect input port: none -> % JACK error: cannot connect output port: -> alsa_pcm:playback_2 i have no idea what to make of this. once freqtweak is running, i can't get alsa_pcm:playback_1, etc. as options. also, ssm just segfaults if i try to connect it to jack at all. pure data just kills all audio. i am running alsa rc5 with an rme9652 and an emu10k1. all of my apps work perfectly without jack. does anyone have a clue or suggestion? i hope that i have just done something silly and someone will be able to point out the error in my ways. thank you for your time. j.c.w. -- WITH GORILLA GONE, WILL THERE BE HOPE FOR MAN? - ishmael
