I can build jack (openSUSE jack-1.9.6 is jack2) with both the dbus and classic interfaces and I've tested it with rosegarden and the classic interface, which is the one that most apps use, still works with a small perceived slowdown but I get a warning from the build that it may not work, so I left the classic only interface build. If someone is prepared to test every aspect of a dual interface jack, I will build it with both interfaces for them, in fact in the near future I will enquire upstream about this but atm I have too much on my plate Bear in mind that jack is used by a large percentage of multimedia:apps and a few other apps, even graphics blender which I also maintain and I have to be careful with what I do with it. The other, very time consuming possibility is to create a parallel package with dbus and no classic but possibly the next release will be able to use both interfaces. Regards Dave P
Thanks Dave, I am willing to test your builds. I use jack quite a bit with one of my main SDR programs. Until now I've been using a version I've built myself in order to have jack_connect and friends. But I have now changed to 1.9.6 in 11.4 Milestone4 which works fine without suspending pulseaudio. The one build I did with dbus didn't work, some problem with /etc/dbus-1/org.jackaudio.service.in, I think it was permissions.

Regards Sid. jack-1.9.6-61.3 and upwards in home:plater have both classic and dbus interfaces enabled. Also all of the multimedia packages in the project have built against it and all work (last time I tested them anyway), don't know if it makes a difference but if you find a problem they are

The repo is : http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/plater/openSUSE_Factory As stated before, I use rosegarden to test jack and rosegarden, which only uses the classic interface, works with the dual interface jack. One important factor, I haven't had pulse audio enabled since I have no need for it. Which packages do you know of that can use jack dbus?
