ALSA isn't in the Fedora kernel, bug the people who packaged it for you. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031202 Description of problem: I have FC1 installed on a Gateway M500 laptop. When the kernel versions 2149 and 2154 were installed all went as expected until ALSA was installed. Originally, I rebuilt kernel-module-alsa using alsa-driver-1.0.1-2.fr.src.rpm for version 2149 and 2154 but I also tried the freshrpms kernel-module-alsa for 2149 with the same results. Version 2154 has been used with my rebuild only. The command used to rebuild the module is: rpmbuild --rebuild --target i686 alsa-driver-1.0.1-2.fr.src.rpm As I indicate, both versions work just fine until their respective ALSA module is installed. Then, just after a reboot and login a message is displayed stating that a CPU overload has occurred and the sound server is being shut down. I also have gkrellm running and according to it,the CPU is indeed running at 100% (until I clear the message) then the CPU usage drops down to just a couple of percent. As I'm no programmer I have no idea as to what is happening here. I'm just reporting on what is occurring with FC1 on this laptop. BTW,kernel version 2140 works just fine with alsa... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.4.22-1.2149.nptl.i686 and kernel-2.4.22-1.2154.nptl.i686 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install kernel version 2149 or 2154 2. install kernel-module-alsa for the kernel version in use 3. reboot system 4. login 5. cpu overload... Actual Results: Upon login the CPU will run at 100% with the CPU Overload message being displayed until sound server is shut down... Expected Results: Normally, with any of the preceding kernel versions the CPU doesn't run at 100% just right after login - this with the ALSA module installed... Additional info: One time only the CPU Overload message was NOT displayed! In gkrellm I watched the CPU load run at 98% to 100% for about 30 seconds without generating the CPU Overload message. After the 30 seconds past the CPU load dropped down to between 5% and 15% - which is unusual for this laptop.
