[PlanetCCRMA] New laptop and FC6+CCRMA: Jack stops all by itself?

[Hakan Koseoglu]

Hi all,

I hope you can help.
My new laptop arrived on Friday and promptly removed the useless OS on
it and installed FC6 and Planet CCRMA - my previous CCRMA experience
was with FC5 so I hope I wasn't being too hasty. The laptop is an Dell
Inspiron 9400 and I installed the 32 bit FC6.

When I start Jack with Qjackctl, it starts and almost immediately
shuts down. If I use amsynth or hydrogen w/o Jack, I get a lot of
clicks.

I am running the stock kernel - I don't know from where I would get
the real-time kernel (I know there isn't one available from Planet
CCRMA right at the moment) - I am a SuSE/Debian sysadmin/developer on
my daytime job, we hardly use any RedHat products therefore most of my
RedHat knowledge is from Redhat 9 days - far too out of date probably,
I wouldn't know where the experimental (rawhide?) SRPMs reside these
days. :-)

Anyway, here's the Jack's output (I tried with 44100 and 48000 Herts
without any difference - I wouldn't know what else to tinker with:
