Description of problem: Running Previre Release of F10 on an XO. I launched cheese, and attempted to take a video recording. I got logs of these lines in /var/log/messages: Early in the log file was some verbose pulseaudio output that may/maynot be related.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle. Changing version to '10'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Hmm, this is interesting. Could you please provide a full bt?
how can I recreate the bt for you? -- bk
Hmm, I also find the "Submitted 1 kernel oopses to www.kerneloops.org" part interesting. Mabe the PA issue just a followup issue due to a kernel issue? What is that about? For the stack trace see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/StackTraces
Closing due to lock of response.
