Hi Daniel, Well there's good news and bad news about that kernel (2.6.28-12-generic #42~crimsun1lp345627 SMP Sat Apr 11 02:00:26 UTC linux-image-2.6.28-12-generic_2.6.28-12.42~crimsun1lp345627_amd64.deb)
The good news is I've not heard any popping. The bad news is that a bug that I had early in Jaunty (maybe pre-the Beta) that had gone away in the last weeks has come back - and it's a worse bug. This bug is that every so often the audio goes nuts for many seconds, complete static, and in the case of Rhythmbox it actually sees an error (not sure what the error is - but it's put an error mark next to the track). I've been running the kernel for a couple of hours now, and that's happened twice; I'm running Rhythmbox and the first time it did it was when I started a flash/youtube video and the second time was at exactly the same time I started a (tiny) gcc compilation in another window - I'm not sure what I can draw from those two cases. There is a : [ 767.162033] pulseaudio[4227]: segfault at 7f9cb637dfd0 ip 00007f9cb637dfd0 sp 00007fffc702c808 error 4 in module-null-sink.so[7f9cb6ba4000+3000] in the log, I suspect that might coincide to the first (flash video) crash. There is only one such seg in the log. To be clear, it doesn't happen on every flash video play, or every compilation - and it really seems like the same bug that got fixed a few versions back; I think it was the one that spammed the logs with lots of errors. Ah, looking at user.log I'm seeing: Apr 12 21:59:19 davros pulseaudio[5193]: cpulimit.c: Received request to terminate due to CPU overload. Apr 12 21:59:30 davros pulseaudio[5919]: main.c: Called SUID root and real-time and/or high-priority scheduling was requested in th e configuration. However, we lack the necessary privileges: Apr 12 21:59:30 davros pulseaudio[5919]: main.c: We are not in group 'pulse-rt', PolicyKit refuse to grant us the requested privile ges and we have no increase RLIMIT_NICE/RLIMIT_RTPRIO resource limits. and I have two of those at about the right times, so I suspect that happened in both cases. (Core 2 Duo 1.66GHz, so it's hardly CPU heavy) Dave -- Occasional Pop sounds (new in Jaunty Beta) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350274 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
