Try out a very recent version of ardour and see if that makes a
difference. I see ladspa related crashes but none of them takes X down.
Last X lock I had was related to disk underruns during playback of 70
mono tracks. That issue was fixed a week ago.
Another aspect here is the way you make jackstuff run with realtime
capabilities: kernelversion, jack invocation etc.
