[PlanetCCRMA] jack - alsa problems continued

[jd002c5250 at blueyonder.co.uk]

Thanks for the tip about jackd mark. But I think my problem is deeper than
that.

I did try but got this:-

[spoony at localhost ~]$ /usr/bin/jackd -R -dalsa -dhw:2 -r44100 -p1024 -n2
jackd 0.99.36


JACK compiled with System V SHM support.
loading driver ..
apparent rate = 44100
creating alsa driver ... hw:2|hw:2|1024|2|44100|0|0|nomon|swmeter|-|32bit
ALSA: Cannot open PCM device alsa_pcm for playback. Falling back to
capture-only mode
cannot load driver module alsa
Segmentation fault

I have had a look at dmesg and found this:-

pci_hotplug: PCI Hot Plug PCI Core version: 0.5
vesafb: probe of vesafb0 failed with error -6

[-chomp-]

PCI: Enabling device 0000:04:00.0 (0080 -> 0082)
ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:04:00.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
Hammerfall-DSP: no Digiface or Multiface connected!
card initialization pending : waiting for firmware

also here is the relevant part of my bootlog:-

Mar  6 16:00:20 localhost alsasound: Starting sound driver snd-hdsp succeeded
Mar  6 16:00:20 localhost alsasound: Starting sequencer succeeded
Mar  6 16:00:20 localhost alsactl: /usr/sbin/alsactl: set_control:1025:
Mar  6 16:00:20 localhost alsactl: bad control.7.value type
Mar  6 16:00:20 localhost alsasound: Restoring sound driver settings failed

I am currently using
kernel-module-alsa-2.6.10-2.1.ll.rhfc3.ccrma-1.0.8-3.rhfc3.ccrma

Has anyone got any advice, I am very happy with my system at the moment
and dont want to flatten it and start again so help would be most
appreciated.

Thanks
