Two of them work fine, but in the third one most of the gnome applications freeze after a random time. Typical apps with problems are: - evince - gnome-panel - gvim - thunderbird - gthumb - ... For example, evince runs fine once but it freezes in the next execution. Running it with strace yields something like: ========== connect(24, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/tmp/.esd/socket"}, 18) = 0 rt_sigaction(SIGPIPE, {0x2ae86551b980, [PIPE], SA_RESTORER|SA_RESTART, 0x2ae862e342c0}, {SIG_IGN}, 8) = 0 open("/home/user/.esd_auth", O_RDONLY) = 25 read(25, "\261V\337\215\303\376\227\274\311\355\376\376\316\16x\275"..., 16) = 16 write(24, "\261V\337\215\303\376\227\274\311\355\376\376\316\16x\275"..., 16) = 16 write(24, "NDNE", 4) = 4 read(24, <unfinished ...> ========== Killing esd solves the problem, so far. The problem is present with the two kernels I have tested (Linux 2.6.22-6-generic and 2.6.20-13-generic). My computer is an "Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz", with an "Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)". I am working with the *64 bits* Ubuntu 7.10 version.
