I've had a couple of total system lockups when playing MPEG audio files under recent 2.1.x kernels. It seems that when the system is under some load while playing the sound it may just totally hang (machine doesn't respond to the keyboard and can't be pinged). I don't have magic-sysrq so I can't test with that. My system is an AMD586-133 with 32megs of RAM, IDE hard drive, Tulip network driver, and SB16 card running headless. When I leave the machine doing nothing but playing audio it seems reliable, but when being used for anything (even just minor shell activity and IP routing) it may randomly lock. However I've also occasionally run `find /` while playing sound without it crashing. I have not found any way of reliably triggering the problem or working around it. If anyone else gets the same problem could you please let me know so we can try and figure out a pattern. Russell Coker | ||||||||||||
