If I run JACK from a GNOME terminal, even with a large period size, all I get are these error messages: load = 0.1875 max usecs: 5.000, spare = 1328.000 delay of 2996.000 usecs exceeds estimated spare time of 1328.000; restart ... delay of 2665.000 usecs exceeds estimated spare time of 1328.000; restart ... delay of 45411.000 usecs exceeds estimated spare time of 1328.000; restart ... delay of 32071.000 usecs exceeds estimated spare time of 1328.000; restart ... delay of 34742.000 usecs exceeds estimated spare time of 1328.000; restart ... delay of 3217.000 usecs exceeds estimated spare time of 1328.000; restart ... delay of 3077.000 usecs exceeds estimated spare time of 1328.000; restart ... delay of 45437.000 usecs exceeds estimated spare time of 1328.000; restart ... delay of 10693.000 usecs exceeds estimated spare time of 1328.000; restart ... delay of 5342.000 usecs exceeds estimated spare time of 1328.000; restart ... load = 0.9565 max usecs: 23.000, spare = 1310.000 delay of 5342.000 usecs exceeds estimated spare time of 1310.000; restart ... delay of 53432.000 usecs exceeds estimated spare time of 1310.000; restart ... etc. If I run if from an xterm or a text console, it works perfectly, even with a really small buffer: load = 0.9302 max usecs: 5.000, spare = 661.000 load = 0.8405 max usecs: 5.000, spare = 661.000 load = 1.7716 max usecs: 18.000, spare = 648.000 load = 2.1621 max usecs: 17.000, spare = 649.000 load = 2.8828 max usecs: 24.000, spare = 642.000 load = 1.8168 max usecs: 5.000, spare = 661.000 load = 1.2838 max usecs: 5.000, spare = 661.000 load = 1.7680 max usecs: 15.000, spare = 651.000 load = 1.2594 max usecs: 5.000, spare = 661.000 load = 1.0051 max usecs: 5.000, spare = 661.000 etc. I have no idea where this bug could be, it seems like it would have to be display-related.
