    Jack won't start under Ubuntu 12.04

    Since Ubuntu 10.04 I use Jack with my Midisports2x2 midi adapter.
    In Ubuntu 11.10 I could start jack.

    Two weeks ago I upgraded my Ubuntu from 11.10 to 12.04 64bits
    I use a Sony vaio laptop vpcF1.
    Today I found out I cound not start jack anymore.
    I saw several Youtube instructions on howto setup jack, but it won't help.

    I hjave jackd and jackd2 installed.

    QJackctl gives following messages:

    20:37:56.309 Patchbay deactivated.

    After some experiments with QJackctl settings I was able tot start Jack finally.

    I used following aettings:
    Server path: /usr/bin/jackd
    Driver: alsa
    Realtime: check on
    Verbose messages: check on
    Remaining check options check off
    Midi Driver: seq
    Start Delay (secs) 2
    Priority: 1
    Frames/Periode: 128
    Sample Rate: 44100
    Periodes/Buffer: 2
    Port Maximum: 512
    Timeout (msec): 500
    Interface hw:0
    Dither: none
    Audio: Duplex
    Remaing settings: default value

    My Latency is 5.8 msec

    After this setting these settings, I am able to start Jack.
    So, problem solved

    Re: Jack won't start under Ubuntu 12.04

    I need to try this. I'm unable to get din to start jack under 12.04 which is particularly annoying as to get it installed on my A3850 desktop with video drivers I had to install 11.04 and then upgrade through 11.10 to 12.04.

    Hope this works!
