I'm running sid on 2.6.11 and am using ALSA. After I boot I hear a faint alarm-like sound, with a periodicity a little smaller than 1 second.
It does not continue once any sound program (xmms, realplay) takes over, so I wouldn't call it a major problem, but it can be annoying until I plug in the speakers and then shut them off. When I drag a window(blackbox) and the user application loses some control I hear it again until the application regains control. I tried compiling vmlinux-2.6.15 but rebooting resulted in no ALSA at all. For no particularly good reason, I've included my ps -ef below: UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD root 1 0 0 02:39 ? 00:00:01 init [2] root 2 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [ksoftirqd/0] root 3 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [events/0] root 4 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [khelper] root 9 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [kthread] root 41 9 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [kblockd/0] root 54 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [khubd] root 101 9 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [pdflush] root 102 9 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [pdflush] root 104 9 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [aio/0] root 103 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [kswapd0] root 702 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [kseriod] root 997 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 /sbin/devfsd /dev root 1799 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [khpsbpkt] root 1845 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 [knodemgrd_0] root 2771 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 /sbin/syslogd root 2781 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 /sbin/klogd root 2795 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/gpm -m /dev/psaux -t a root 2846 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/hddtemp -d -l 127.0.0. root 2851 1 0 02:39 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/inetd root 3146 1 0 02:40 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/pbbuttonsd --configfile root 3157 1 0 02:40 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/powernowd -q root 3282 1 0 02:40 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/sshd root 3368 1 0 02:40 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/noflushd -n 1 /dev/hda root 3412 1 0 02:40 tty1 00:00:00 /bin/login -- root 3418 1 0 02:40 tty2 00:00:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty2 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
