 so it is fixed on your box?


I may need to rephrase the problem: There's a difference between 2.6.24 and 
2.6.25, which made the upgrade non-smooth with respect to sound on my system.

 hmm the bug report lacks info about an eventual kernel failure.
 anything in dmesg around that time.


No, there were no kernel failures reported.

 right try without it, sorry but with nvidia blob tainting
 the kernel is no longer supported.

While I realize the problem the nvidia blob presents, this is a sad position 
to take. Installing software from the Debian repository with module-assistant 
made my kernel bug reports uninteresting?

I would try without the nvidia blob, but it's too much of a bother (because it 
also requires a different X configuration). As you said, the sound problem is 
solved on my system; the bug was filed in hope of improving the upgrade 
experience for others.

Have fun,
Shai.

Bug#483664: linux-image-2.6.25-2-686: sound only works when one virtual X console in use

2008-05-30 Thread Shai Berger 
Package: linux-image-2.6.25-2-686
Version: 2.6.25-4
Severity: normal


Yesterday I upgraded the kernel from 2.6.24  to 2.6.25 (I was waiting
for the nVidia kernel source fix). Since then, sound stops working
as soon as a second user logs in.

All users use virtual consoles -- the machine is a desktop. The problem
arises when there are two graphical users (i.e. X servers on vt7 and vt8).
When the problem starts, there is no sound on either session.

Sound did work when there was an X session on vt7 and a text session
on vt1.

When I went back to 2.6.24, I had to run alsaconf fixed sound. Then
I came back again to 2.6.25, only to have the problem repeat. Running
alsaconf yet again seems to have fixed it.
