[FFADO-user] Mackie Mixer on Firewire

I have the Mackie mixer working well on a lowly, single core AMD with 2GB Memory and a TI Firewire interface. I decided to move all Linux operations to a newly-built computer. This is an Athlon II dual core machine with 4GB of memory and the latest Ubuntu Studio running on XFCE. I am a member of the audio group and /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf has, @audio - rtprio 95 @audio - memlock unlimited #@audio - nice -19 I can only get ALSA to run without XRUNS with a Frames/Period of 2048. There appear to be blips of hard drive activity all the time and they do seem to correlate with XRUNS. I have had this problem before with the BIOS being set to SCSI emulation rather than full SATA working. I will take this XRUN problem away for further investigation. Now to the main event. roy@ibm5:~$ lspci 03:00.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): NEC Corporation uPD72874 IEEE1394 OHCI 1.1 3-port PHY-Link Ctrlr (rev 01) roy@ibm5:~$ ls -l /dev/fw* crw------- 1 root root 251, 0 2012-02-20 11:05 /dev/fw0 crw-rw----+ 1 root audio 251, 1 2012-02-20 11:05 /dev/fw1 roy@ibm5:~$ sudo ffado-test ListDevices [sudo] password for roy: ----------------------------------------------- FFADO test and diagnostic utility ----------------------------------------------- === 1394 PORT 0 === Node id GUID VendorId ModelId Vendor - Model 0 0x00000ff200029217 0x0000000F 0x00010065 Mackie - Onyx Firewire 1 0x00004c0100003f7b 0x0000004C 0x00000000 Linux Firewire - no message buffer overruns roy@ibm5:~$ ffado-test ListDevices ----------------------------------------------- FFADO test and diagnostic utility ----------------------------------------------- === 1394 PORT 0 === Node id GUID VendorId ModelId Vendor - Model 0 0x00000ff200029217 0x0000000F 0x00010065 Mackie - Onyx Firewire 00849091808: Error (configrom.cpp)[ 150] initialize: Could not parse config rom of node 1 on port 0 no message buffer overruns roy@ibm5:~$ jackd -dfirewire -v3 jackdmp 1.9.7...

I think the XRUNS are a general symptom of the system rather than being FFADO related. I will investigate this, myself. Anyone have any ideas why I cannot get the Mackie running without being a superuser? Is it related to getting the ListDevices error, 00849091808: Error (configrom.cpp)[ 150] initialize: Could not parse config rom of node 1 on port 0 if I am not superuser? Regards Roy Leith |
