stop jackd from terminal/commandline

[HarryR]

Hi,

does anybody know, how to stop jackd from terminal/commandline ?

I don't want to click "stop" in qjackctl or somerwhere else for some reason

best regards

To just stop jack:

Code: Select all

jack_control stop

For jack with dbus try

Code: Select all

jack_control exit

And there is always

Code: Select all

killall -9 jackd

All this will not gracefully quit the clients though.

Thanks, works fine

I always do this also before 'killall jackd':

Code: Select all

pkill -9 jackdbus
