From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.4) Gecko/20011126 Netscape6/6.2.1 Description of problem: I have had my system (Red Hat 7.2) completely freeze up several times. Each time this occurred when xmms advanced to the next song in my playlist (randomly). My computer is then not pingable (meaning it's completely dead), and I have to restart. I have contacted the xmms people and they think that it could not be related to xmms, and that it might be related to my sound drivers. I have a Creative Labs SB Live, and sndconfig says "EMU10000" after that. My only guess is a memory leak or something. Please let me know if you figure anything out. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce Steps to Reproduce: 1. I tried to reproduce it by running through every song in my playlist one by one (1100 songs) but the system didn't crash. So it's not reproducible. 2. 3. Additional info:
