error message

Asked by jconstable

was reading through the forum "Error Prompt" and either I missed something or they got their problem fixed and didn't post a guide to fixing the problem.

I have the same problem and am posting the results of the lsb and uname commands

aaa@ubuntu:~$ lsb_release -a

upon further investigation and reading through another part of the forums... I have gotten the answer

and Here It Is....

You have to launch jackd first (it's a kind of application to process sound a certain way) and then launch creox while jackd is running somewhere in another terminal window.
I've found an easy way to do two at once (besides that - with closing creox -- jackd ends it's work):
press Alt+F2 and type
jackd -d alsa -d hw:0 & creox

For some strange reason this command can not be added to the menu (maybe it's too complicated for the menu launcher)

I had to install jackd first
sudo apt-get install jackd

after that, did as suggested "jackd -d alsa -d hw:0 & creox".... and it worked.
