esd & sawfish crash
Hello everyone,
I have a problem regarding the enlightened sound demon esd and my
sawfish windowmanager. If i tell sawfish via the GNOME control center to
use sounds, everything works fine for a while but my after a while X
hangs step by step. That means technically, sound works but after some
sound events occured, first the active window hangs, in panel some icons
still focus on mouse, but on click this also hangs etc.
Thus, it is more sawfish that hangs rather than X or GNOME, but
Ctrl-Alt-Bksp will not do anylonger, i have to do a hardreset or X-kill
via ssh from another box.
It seems that the problems arises when some sound events occur at the
same time (sound mixing), cos when using XMMS via esd everything is fine.
debver:
sid (<days)
kernel:
2.4.14
GNOME:
1.4.0.1
Sawfish:
1.00
esd:
0.2.22
The problem exists a long time, seemlessly independent from any versions
named above.
My audio hardware: Intel 810 (module i810_audio) with AC 97. I am using
the Toshiba Satellite 3000-100 Laptop, which may not correctly support
APM (maybe that has to do with it?).
Other apps not using esd work just fine: XMMS w/o esd, RealPlayer, Loki
game demos (okay, i use'em very rearely 8^Q), FreeAmp, Ogg123 etc.
Any ideas??? Thank you anyhow,
Timo
