Description Need Real Name 2003-06-08 19:10:01 UTC
Description of problem:
I upgraded Kernel and kernel sources from linux-2.4.20-13.9 to linux-2.4.20-18.9
went to my emu10k1 directory ran make clean - make - make - make install - make
tools - make install-tools got no errors but sound which had been working with
the previous kernel no longer worked - a reboot produced a number of logged
errors - also after this upgrade Galeon freezes when I submit a form or attempt
a search 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

kernel 2.4.20-18.9 kernel source 2.4.20-18.9

How reproducible:

Every time with this kernel

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Upgrade kernel and sources from 2.4.20-13.9 to 2.4.20-18.9
2. Make clean and recompile emu10k1 Audigy drivers - comment out lines referring
to the sound and aumix in the modules.conf file reboot - install the drivers
3. Reboot look at /var/log/messages for errors
    
Actual results:
From /var/log/messages with lines commented out of modules.conf to see results
with lines uncommnented please refer to bug # 91489
modprobe: Can't locate module sound-slot-0
modprobe: Can't locate module sound-service-0-3

i8253 count too high! resetting..

these messages repeat dozens of times for each reboot

No sound and a popup that informs me that aumix could not be loaded
Expected results:

sound to work and no error messages as has been my experience with each kernel
until this one


Additional info:

91489 seems to refer to the same problem on a previous kernel 

I had to comment out all the audigy amd aumix lines from modules.conf to file
this report as submission of forms freezes Galeon (and Mozilla)

"went to my emu10k1 directory"
does that mean it's not the driver we ship?

Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of
the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem
persists.

The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, 
and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in
the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
