The HDSPe AIO card is ONLY supported by 1.0.24, it can't work without
1.0.24!
I try to explain it again, unfortunately my English is broken.
$ uname -a
Linux debian 2.6.39.1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jun 7 01:40:05 CEST 2011 x86_64
GNU/Linux
Before I build and installed the kernel I removed all ALSA packages
excepted of libasound2 1.0.23-4, a dependency for the Debian audio
packages. I didn't replace it by a dummy package.
I can run jackdmp 1.9.8 from svn (also needed to enable jitter free hw
midi)
$ jackd --sync -Xalsarawmidi -dalsa -r48000 -p1024
without getting an error message, it's the same for
$ jackd --sync -dalsa -r48000 -p1024
but if I run qjackctl I get
03:11:54.885 Patchbay deactivated.
03:11:54.887 Statistics reset.
03:11:54.913 Could not open ALSA sequencer as a client. ALSA
MIDI patchbay will be not available.
ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq
failed: Permission denied
Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory
Cannot connect to server socket
jack server is not running or cannot be started
E.g. no alsaconf.
The "Xilinx RME Hammerfall DSP MADI" is a RME HDSPe AIO, but instead of
showing the name DSP MADI and two MIDI devices for the DSP MADI, there's
no name and only one MIDI device for the first card, if I run jackd,
hence the driver and/or firmware was switched! When the outdated ALSA
from testing completely is installed, jackd's output differs regarding
to the name and the MIDI devices.

This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.
