Description milady 2008-01-19 15:13:09 UTC
Description of problem:
The arts soundserver crashes at the beginning of the KDE session. The moment I
click OK to close the window informing the crash, the system freezes (I think
it's a kernel oops) and it stops responding even to keyboard commands, I am
forced to shut it down using the power off button of the computer.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.23.9-85.fc8

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start KDE session
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
System freeze

Expected results:
Working KDE session

kernel OOPS trace

If I leave the soundserver crash window alone, I can use the system just fine.
As soon as I try to close it or look at the backtrace, the kernel freezes.

Same as bug 391971, except mine triggers a kernel OOPS.

Can you confirm this is a single-processor system?


Comment 7 Chuck Ebbert 2008-01-21 20:09:37 UTC
If you boot with the kernel option "noreplace-smp" does it prevent the kernel
OOPS when this happens?

Comment 8 milady 2008-01-21 20:16:31 UTC
My computer is a single-processor system (2 GHz Intel Pentium M).

No more kernel OOPS with this option. The soundserver still crashes though.

Patch went in kernel 2.6.23.14-118.

> And can you confirm this happened on a single-processor machine?

Yes, AMD Sempron 3000+ with Cool 'n' Quiet activated on Asrock mainboard.

Comment 13 milady 2008-01-25 19:22:19 UTC
I think I know what may have caused the bug on my system: I'm using a webcam for
which the driver is not yet included in the kernel modules. I need the
OmniVision 519 driver and I compiled the version provided on www.rastageeks.org

Not having the webcam connected at startup solves the soundserver problem and
therefore the kernel oops...

Hope this helps
