Bug#376699: linux-image-2.6.17-1-686: locks up when playing MIDI file to EMU10K1 soundcard and hard disk activity
Package: linux-image-2.6.17-1-686
Version: 2.6.17-2
Severity: important
Please refer to:
[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#376382: ALSA MIDI playback
lock-up on kernel 2.6.17-686, not on kernel 2.6.16-2-686
The 2.6.17-1-686 has lockups when I attempt to play MIDI files to a
SoundBlaster Live! 5.1 model 0220 PCI sound card using its onboard
MIDI synth and there is significant hard disk activity. I have not
had this problem since reverting to the 2.6.16-2-686 kernel.
I'm running a PII-266 with 256 MiB of RAM.
