"autospawn = no" does not help at all. The only way I know that prevents pulseaudio from starting, is to move the /usr/bin/pulseaudio binary away from it’s location. This allows the system to start up normally. I then run: (sudo mv /usr/bin/pa /usr/bin/pulseaudio); LANG=C pulseaudio -vvvv > ~/pulseverbose.log 2>&1 i.e moving back the binary before running it.
Tried 3 times, 1 time the system rebooted immediately, the other 2 it did not. I think I have found the error though. If the HDMI audio is disabled (is there ANY way of doing this without pulseaudio running? I can not find any configuration file for stuff in the sound properties GUI), then the system appears to work properly. Last time I ran pulseaudio I disabled the HDMI output, then enabled it again, which caused a reboot. Maybe something in the log shows this.. It makes sense that the HDMI is causing it, since the bug can be prevented by either removing pulseaudio or replacing the graphics driver with fglrx. Is there any way to disable the HDMI output (or modify any other pulseaudio properties) via the command line.. ? appears that the configuration is stored in some binary .tdb files in the ~/.pulse directory.. ** Attachment added: "LANG=C pulseaudio -vvvv" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/39100352/pulseverbose.log -- karmic release candidate restarts computer when starting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/458676 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
