This may seem a silly question, but have you started jack server prior to starting PD? This was a must at least in older iterations of Pd. You can use something like qjackctl to get that configured.

Good evening,
I am trying to get pd to work on my eeepc 1000H netbook, which is running Ubuntu 12.04 and using an HDA Intel sound card. pd keeps giving me this message when I try to connect to jack:
JACK: unable to connect to JACK server JACK: server returned status 17
I tried qjackctl: in the gui, I started jack and pressed play. Still pd
was unable
to connect to jack. I also tried 1) changing sample rate to 48000, 2)
unchecking
realtime in jack settings. Finally I got tired of googling and thus
decided to
send out this cry for help before going to bed.
looking forward to some answers/questions/ideas, thanks, Dix
