[FFADO-devel] Sudden firewire problems

[Colleen J. <cj...@mi...>]

I have ffado/jack running with my Mackie Onyx 1220i.

It has been running great for months now....but suddenly, after hours of
working fine, I get a catastrophic failure when I try to start jack.

Nothing (literally nothing) has been installed/updated recently, so I'm not
sure what could be causing the sudden failure.
