hmm... seems to make it go away, but is that just because the error

qjackctl from a terminal window, i don't any messages in the terminal
about jack status anyway, so it's hard to tell.

If this can be usefull,here is the window messages output of
qjackctl before an after change the "Capture standard output" option,and
the shell output of jackd with the same config that qjackctl.

I have this working on a Pentium IV 2.6 ,1gb ddr,terratec dmx6 fire
(ice1712) running Debian Sid and the A/Demudi kernel 2.6.13-1-multimedia.
Still learning how to compile my own :p .

Again, I believe the "cannot write to jackstart sync pipe 4 (Bad file
descriptor)" message is nothing to worry about. And as it seems from the
results above it just confirms my suspicion. If you're sticking with a
2.6 kernel, just don't configure jackd with --enable-capabilities and
you're off the hook ;)
Cheers.

The same for me.
when starting jackd with the same parameters, but from
the
commandline, i do not get the jackstart sync pipe error message.
perhaps it's a qjackctl bug?
-p
Have you tried whether switching off standard output capture on
qjackctl/setup/options makes any difference on that "jackstart sync
pipe" issue?
