Looks like a problem setting up the shared memory to use ALSA's dmix. Reassigning to alsa-lib. please attach /root/scssound.log (it's generated by system-config-soundcard) Fedora apologizes that these issues have not been resolved yet. We're sorry it's taken so long for your bug to be properly triaged and acted on. We appreciate the time you took to report this issue and want to make sure no important bugs slip through the cracks. If you're currently running a version of Fedora Core between 1 and 6, please note that Fedora no longer maintains these releases. We strongly encourage you to upgrade to a current Fedora release.

To my regret I cannot upgrade to a later Fedora release
as since Fedora 7 PATA disks are always treated as SCSI disks
and SCSI disks cannot contain more than 15 partitions,
while I do have more than twenty of them.
It seems I should have to switch to some other Linux distribution.
Well, we're not going to fix any bug in FC5. Closing. |
Description of problem: esd failes to initialize IPC shared memory. This is a tail of strace esd log: open("/dev/snd/controlC0", O_RDWR) = 5 ioctl(5, USBDEVFS_CONTROL, 0xbf833634) = 0 ioctl(5, UI_DEV_CREATE, 0xbf833610) = 0 close(5) = 0 semget(2037514327, 1, IPC_CREAT|0600) = 196608 semop(196608, 0xbf833bde, 2) = 0 shmget(323539665, 384, IPC_CREAT|0600) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) write(2, "ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:851:(snd_pcm"..., 44ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:851:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) ) = 44 write(2, "unable to create IPC shm instanc"..., 33unable to create IPC shm instance) = 33 write(2, "\n", 1) = 1 shmdt(0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) unlink("/tmp/.esd/socket") = 0 rmdir("/tmp/.esd") = 0 exit_group(2) = ? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): esound-0.2.36-2.2.1 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just launch esd Actual results: Esd either finishes shortly or just sits there in semop() forever. Expected results: esd should run and do its job. Additional info: There are chances this problem is dealt with kernel (2.6.17-1.2174_FC5.i686) and/or architecture (the CPU is Pentium III (Coppermine)) as some other applications (namely firefox) come accross the same problem accidentally.
