Bug#1054896: libasound2: alsa 1.2.10-1 segfaults on i386

2023-10-28 Thread Petra Rübe-Pugliese
Package: libasound2
Version: 1.2.10-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

Since update of the alsa packages
libasound2
libasound2-data
alsa-utils
libatopology2
from v1.2.9-1 to v1.2.10-1 all sound programs fail with a
segfault (see typical output below.)

This happens reproducibly on four different i386 computers
(this Thinkpad T420, two older Thinkpads T41, and an old PC).
I cannot tell if any other architecture is affected.

Downgrading of the four packages to v1.2.9-1 solves the problem.

Typical output:

I do not think so.
I usually get _heaps_ of output scrolling away on the screen,
but in this case absolutely _nothing_ happens after the
first line of output.

How would that be done?

I'm glad to hear that it's not just me ...

I did the following:

 -> Start the notebook with the "bad" kernel at about 16:56 today.
(The notebook had not run before today.)
 -> Press the button at around 16:58 to stop it.
 -> Restart the "good" kernel at 16:59:xx

Bug#995565: linux-image-5.14.0-1-686: Does not boot successfully on old T41 Thinkpads (I/O problem?)

2021-10-09 Thread Petra Rübe-Pugliese
This bug does _not_ persist with linux-image-5.14.0-2-686, with
which both T41 Thinkpads boot normally again.

This bugreport can therefore be marked as closed.

   Thank you very much!

Bug#995565: linux-image-5.14.0-1-686: Does not boot successfully on old T41 Thinkpads (I/O problem?)

2021-10-02 Thread Petra Rübe-Pugliese
Package: src:linux
Version: 5.14.6-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainers,

This happens reproducibly on two old IBM T41 Thinkpads:

When booting this new kernel image, video output stops at:

[OK] Listening on Control Socket.
[OK] Listening on udev Kernel Socket.
 Mounting Huge Pages File System...
 Mounting POSIX Message Queue File System...

After this, hard disk activity goes on for a while; I can even
hear a sound effect produced by my /etc/rc.local playing a .wav
file with /usr/bin/play .

No keyboard input has any effect whatsoever.

(Please mind that this bug report has been produced with one of
these Thinkpads, but using linux-image-5.10.0-8-686, which works
flawlessly.)

   Kind regards,
 P. R.-P.
