I'm experiencing a problem that's got me scratching my head:
On an up to date 8.0-RELEASE-p2 system, with an up to date ports tree from which everything was built, if I start X (with any window manager; doesn't matter which one) - and, I either try and play an audio clip (I've tried numerous ways so far: "play" from a command prompt; xmms; etc.) - the problem also occurs if I run "jack-keyboard" and "ghostess" for any length of time - the system reboots. With no error(s) displayed at the time. And, with no errors logged anywhere.
I've tried using different "jackd" parameters; that had no apparent effect on the problem. When I run "ardour", the problem is at its worst: ardour starts up and seems to work fine. For 5 - 10 minutes. Then, the machine reboots without any warning.
I can use X alone with no problems (this system has been up for 3 days now and X has been running the entire time). I can use sound from a virtual (text) console, no problem. With or without even with X running at the same time.
I'm using OSS4 from ports. I wasn't able to get jack to run using the "built in" driver, snd_ich; the snd_hda driver doesn't work with this hardware. Here's what "pciconf -lv" reports:
The machine itself is a Dell Inspiron 6000 with 2Gb RAM and a 1.60GHz Pentium-M processor. I'm running X, jackd, etc. as a regular user (not "root").
Can anyone shed some light on this? I've tried everything I can think of.
Thanks in advance.
