[FFADO-user] Can't launch Jack with Fireface 400

[Hanns H. R. <co...@sc...>]

Hi there,

I am trying to get my MacBook Pro Laptop to work with an RME Fireface
400, using Debian Jessie.

I am almost sure that jackd already did at one point launch properly
with firewire, but I can't reproduce. All I get know is this:

    $ jackd -dfirewire -v6

I am able to launch ffado-mixer and it correctly shows the FF 400,
synced to incoming wordclock at 48 kHz.

Any ideas?

Thanks, .h.h.
