[Ardour-Users] Ardour doesn't play

Sat Apr 12 04:21:16 PDT 2008

Hi,
I'm using:
Ardour 1:2.0.5-1ubuntu1
jackd 0.103.0-6ubuntu1

jackd is running with Ardour.

I'm getting this on the command line (the xrun message keeps going on so I
cut a lot out and replaced with ...). I tried to play something again.
