Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ALSA package 1.0.4 How reproducible: The bug is not reproducible, so it is likely a hardware or OS problem. Actual results: alisp.c:392: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault make[3]: *** [alisp.lo] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/warrick/alsa/alsa-lib-1.0.4/src/alisp' make[2]: *** [alisp/libalisp.la] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/warrick/alsa/alsa-lib-1.0.4/src' make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/warrick/alsa/alsa-lib-1.0.4/src' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 Additional info: This error occurs only when using: ./configure;make;make install under alsa-lib-1.0.4 package Sound card is MonsterSound mx300: AU8830 I have been trying to get this sound card to work on Core 1, but gave up and uprgaded to Core 2, which will actually find the card, but gives no sound. This is the most frustrating thing I have ever endured. Please help ... thank you.
If you get "The bug is not reproducible, so it is likely a hardware or OS problem." from the compiler, you should check your hardware. memtest86 might be a good start. If you can reproduce the ICE, I need the preprocessed testcase (GCC ought to create it automatically if it determines it is reproduceable).
I apologize for my ignorance, but how do I run memtest86? and what does ICE stand for (if that really matters)? I thank thee for thy time...
You can run memtest86 e.g. by booting FC2 ISO and typing memtest86 on the first prompt. ICE stands for Internal Compiler Error.
Okay.. a few things to update here... First of all, thank you for your help in getting memtest86 running, interesting program, didn't find any errors. Also, I began to play around with the ALSA mixer, and actually got sound out of my card by muting all fields, except for the 3D sound module. And the sound I do get out of the card is no perfect, either. Its either jumbled, or too fast, but sometimes plays normally. Not sure if all that adds up to a solution, but it seems like its close. Let me know what you think... thank you again for your time and help.
Well, there is certainly nothing that can be done for a non-reproduceable compiler segfault, especially when testcase is missing. Therefore closing.
