Re: [LAU] Fedora 13 : FFADO

I noticed that on Fedora 12, I get the following output from jackd : ///// ///// ///// ///// ///// could not open driver .so '/usr/lib64/jack/jack_firewire.so': libffado.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory could not open component .so '/usr/lib64/jack/jack_firewire.so': libffado.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Unkown driver "firewire" ///// ///// ///// ///// ///// However, unexpectedly (as suggested by "yum whatprovides"), installing libffado-devel x86_64 2.0.1-3.20100706.svn1864.fc12 updates 51 k renders it working one level better: ///// ///// ///// ///// ///// 261554187380: (ffado.cpp)[ 92] ffado_streaming_init: libffado 2.999.0- built Jul 18 2010 21:25:42 firewire ERR: FFADO: Error creating virtual device Cannot attach audio driver JackServer::Open() failed with -1 ///// ///// ///// ///// ///// Checking further w/ ffado-diag: ///// ///// ///// ///// ///// The new FireWire kernel stack is loaded.

Even though I know it is futile. Perhaps on F13, if you're using the CCRMA jackd, you may find installing libffado-devel, and not just libffado may help get your interface running. I certainly found the behavior unexpected. -- Niels http://nielsmayer.com
