Hi,
I add my name to the list of many who have struggled and failed to get FFADO and JACK working with my Jaunty-based system and Echo Audio AudioFire12.
It seems my last resort is to appeal to the support that may be offered through this list.
This is the message I get when I attempt to start JACK via JACK Control:
14:44:58.156 Patchbay deactivated.
14:44:58.167 Statistics reset.

Let me make a disclaimer, I am a Linux lightweight though keen to persist with Ubuntu. I've spent the day scouring the interweb for clues. Seems there is still something fundamentally wrong wih my set up. Anyway, from what I have seen, helpful folk will want to see the following information (and stealing shamelessly from Asmo Koskinien's post from 31st Mark - kittos Asmo):
1. I have /dev/raw1394
sje...@ubuntu-studio:~$ ls -al /dev/raw1394
crw-rw---- 1 root video 171, 0 2009-08-16 13:54 /dev/raw1394
2. I have modules
sje...@ubuntu-studio:~$ lsmod | grep 1394
raw1394 33116 0
ohci1394 38832 0
ieee1394 95932 2 raw1394,ohci1394
3. I don't believe my fw is Ricoh
sje...@ubuntu-studio:~$ lspci | grep FireWire
01:00.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6306 Fire II IEEE 1394 OHCI Link Layer Controller (rev 80)
4. FFADO sees Echo
sje...@ubuntu-studio:~$ ffado-test ListDevices

5. I am running the Linux RT kernel
sje...@ubuntu-studio:~$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu-studio 2.6.28-3-rt #12-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT RT Fri Apr 17 10:09:11 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
6. You might also like to know that I have created the following file, with the following contents
/etc/udev/rules.d/60-raw1394.rules
#KERNEL=="raw1394", GROUP="audio"
#KERNEL=="dv1394*", GROUP="audio"
#KERNEL=="video1394*", GROUP="audio"
7. In the /etc/security/limits.conf file I have the following 3 lines
@audio - rtprio 99
@audio - memlock unlimited
@audio - nice -19
I'm all out of ideas how to proceed. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
