There is a jack option there, but, when I start it, I
see a window:
"Sound server informational message:
Error while initializing the sound driver:
Couldn´t connect to jackd
The sound server will continue using the null output
device"
Ok, seems either
a] jack is not installed properly
b] it is run with options that won't work on your box
c] kde sux ;)
what happens if you do this from the console:
jackd -d alsa -p 512
pkg-config jack --cflags --libs
2-Making a /home/ref/jack-audio-connection-kit and
./configure builds with no alsa support and with oss
support. (with alsa loaded or oss turned loaded)
I don't fully understand what you say, but:
Do you have the ALSA development files installed? In pretty much all
distros there's a distinction between just a library package and a
corresponding development packages which you need when you want to
compile stuff against that lib.
3-When Pd 0.38.4-extended is installed, the pd
command
issues:
"pd: error while loading shared libraries:
libjack0.80.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory
Did you install jack by hand or from a package?
4- There is no "alsa" or
"alsasound" file to do the
usual:
..path/alsa stop
..path/alsa start
(commonly at /etc/rc.d/init.d/alsa)
There is, though, a /etc/init.d/alsa that accepts
"unload, reload, resolve" commands.
Hmm, not sure about this one.
5- While borwsing menus like Kmenu, we hear sound
hickups.
This can have soooooooooooooo many reasons. Try usign a bigger
buffersize. I also think i saw that artsd can run with reltime priv,
too. Check the kontrol center for that. Keep in mind you probably need
rtlimits setup correctly or the realtime lsm.
