How are you starting caed(8)? By using the init script? I've noticed some quirky behavior sometimes when using the init script. On some systems it works fine. On others, it seems to hang the graph in odd ways -- the ports will show up in QJackConnect, but QJackConnect itself then becomes totally unresponsive to user interaction until caed(8) is killed. I'm not sure if the problem is in caed or jackd itself. I'm currently running a rather old version of JACK (v0.80.0) in an effort to keep it stock SuSE 9.0, but I'm planning to upgrade to the current release shortly to see if that makes a difference. In the meantime, try the following experiment:

1) Make sure all Rivendell daemons are shut down.
2) Start up jackd
3) Open an xterm, 'su' to root and do 'caed -d'. The '-d' will keep it from forking to the background.
4) Start up the rest of the Rivendell daemons normally (using the init script if desired).


Does that make any difference?

Also, what kernel are you using? There are major issues right now with running JACK on a 2.6.x kernel (appears to be related to the new NPTL pthreads implementation, but the JACK developers don't really have a handle on it yet). Check out the jack-devel list for details.

Cheers!
