Subject: linux-image-2.6.25-2-686: sound breaks on second login to main X
session (vt7)
Package: linux-image-2.6.25-2-686
Version: 2.6.25-4
Severity: normal
This report corrects my misdiagnosis of the problem as
reported in bug #483664.
I use a desktop machine with multiple X sessions in virtual terminals.
with kernel 2.6.25, I have this scenario, reproducibly:
- After boot, first user logs into X session on vt7
- First user logs out
- Again, a user logs in on vt7 (I used same user, but I don't think that
matters)
- Sound dies
This happens whether or not there are other users in other vt's, and
sound dies for all sessions (including sessions which opened before
on other vt's and had sound).
running alsaconf at this point restores sound, but only until the next
login on vt7.
2.6.24 doesn't have the problem at all, and all I can see in dmesg or
/var/log/syslog is the device being restarted by alsaconf (that is,
no errors).
I realize that my use of an nvidia blob makes my kernel unsupported;
I will try later, when I have more time, to see if I can reproduce
the problem without it. What seemed before (in #483664) like an
upgrade problem, appears now to be an actual problem with the
new kernel, so I will make more of an effort to pinpoint it; I wanted
to report it anyway in case the better description rings a bell.
I have gone back to 2.6.24 to let the other users of this computer
enjoy sound -- I'm attaching the 2.6.25 kernel info (from my earlier
report) after the 2.6.24 info.
