BIG PROBLEM - please help!

Hey, this is my first post!
I have tried for weeks, but I can't understand why, when I try to save\load a project in Ladish, the Jack server crashes, failing to reload the audio card.
I discovered that was a problem with the Jack start\stop function.
After boot, jack works, and everything goes ok.
If I stop jack and restart it, it fails, but if I force the restart it goes successfully.
The problem is in Ladish, cause it sends to jack the start\stop cycle to load project...
I've got an M-AUDIO Delta 1010, (I heard it's well-supported).
Jack Log sends me this output when I stop:
Fri Nov 23 21:56:26 2012: Stopping jack server...
Fri Nov 23 21:56:26 2012: Client 'system' with PID 0 is out

Fri Nov 23 21:56:26 2012: ERROR: control open "hw:M1010,0" (No such file or directory)
and when I start it gives me this:
Fri Nov 23 21:57:14 2012: Starting jack server...
Fri Nov 23 21:57:14 2012: JACK server starting in realtime mode with priority 10

Fri Nov 23 21:57:14 2012: ERROR: JackServer::Open() failed with -1
Fri Nov 23 21:57:14 2012: ERROR: Failed to open server
I hope someone could save me!

I've had weird problems stopping studios when I run a2j. Not sure if it will make a difference in your case but try stopping a2j before stopping your studio (or set up a test studio without it).

What is the output of
ulimit -r -l && free
?
Did you try this?
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/JA ... rrors_:.22
EDIT: Maybe some ladish process is eating memory and you have to kill that. I am not sure.

nope, it doesn't work.
I noticed also that Jack gives me the same kind of problem when I force to restart, but i don't know for what reason it runs.
But I have one question.
Is it there a way to save just a default template, so I can start working on projects?
Maybe if I keep the same connections between the project, it can work...

have installed a fresh install of the OS, jack had the same problem.
I updated at 1.9.9 and it worked!
Thanks guys! you saved me! (and my projects XD)
I have only one question: I just noticed that claudia just save the audio links, but it doesn't handle the midi signals anymore (midi in the patchbay simply disappear).
How can I save the midi connection (or just make them appear?)

Run 'a2j -e' externally (not as an app in Claudia).
Later I'll add a related option in the Claudia menus
it gives me this error:
DBus exception: org.gna.home.a2jmidid.error.generic: a2j_start() failed.
