Package: jackd
Version: 0.109.2-5
Severity: important
I tried to enable jackd start at boot up by editing /etc/default/jackd
When the system starts I do ...
$ ps -ef | grep [j]ack
.... and see no listing.
I modified /etc/init.d/jackd to print more verbose messages (attached).
I then tried ...
# /etc/init.d/jackd start
....and got...
Removing stale PID file /var/run/jackd.pid. (warning).
Starting jackd audio server: jackdStarting /usr/bin/jackd...
Detaching to start /usr/bin/jackd...done.
..
If I run...
# /etc/init.d/jackd start
....straight after I get the exact same message.
