sndconfig-0.37-3 Running sndconfig when sound modules are already loaded does bad things to the system (hard reboot necesarry).
Hmm... it should clean out the modules before it tries to load any new ones... what sort of errors do you get?
No errors - it just stops responding (you can switch VCs, but any login attempt or command will hang) after you've pressed enter at the "detected soundcard" screen (which it has detected correctly)
Is this on the same machine that locks up with pnpdump, or is this a different machine?
No, this is a brand-new workstation (PIII) I use at work. Compaq Deskpro. Different card, too - 1868 vs 1869. sndconfig had no problem finding and using this soundcard when I installed RH 6.0 (it now has all packages as of now from the snapshot of 6.1beta).
Grumble. OK, this is between the 'Found a ESS1868' and the 'Sound Card Test' dialogs? That's a really bizarre place for it to lock up. 1) can you run 'pnpdump -c' without it locking 2) if so, could you build a debugging version of sndconfig and let me know where it's locking?
Also, just for curiousity's sake, what does /proc/interrupts & /proc/ioports look like? (BTW, if you need a debugging version of sndconfig, I can send you one...)Also, just for curiousity's sake, what does /proc/interrupts & /proc/ioports look like?

Please send me the debugging sndconfig. pnpdump doesn't finish: # $Id: pnpdump.c,v 1.18 1999/02/14 22:47:18 fox Exp $ # This is free software, see the sources for details. # This software has NO WARRANTY, use at your OWN RISK # # For details of this file format, see isapnp.conf(5) # # For latest information and FAQ on isapnp and pnpdump see: # http://www.roestock.demon.co.uk/isapnptools/ # # Compiler flags: -DREALTIME -DNEEDSETSCHEDULER -DABORT_ONRESERR # # Trying port address 0203 # Board 1 has serial identifier d7 ff ff ff ff 03 00 73 16 # (DEBUG) (READPORT 0x0203) (ISOLATE PRESERVE) (IDENTIFY *) (VERBOSITY 2) (CONFLICT (IO FATAL)(IRQ FATAL)(DMA FATAL)(MEM FATAL)) # or WARNING
and it locks up, just like the other sndconfig - ctrl-c fixes it
This is what pnpdump -c gives in single mode (with sound modules unloaded - if they're loaded, it hangs): # $Id: pnpdump.c,v 1.18 1999/02/14 22:47:18 fox Exp $ # This is free software, see the sources for details. #
