2006-01-24 23:43:03 John Moser description If I run rhythmbox for a half hour or so listening to music, eventually the system suddenly freezes. Keyboard buttons can't mess with the LEDs; ping doesn't reach the machine; mouse doesn't work; disk activity stops; and the last frame of audio loops so I hear the same 20-50mS of sound over and over and over. I'm on an emu10k1 based SB audigy. Machine is Socket 754 Athlon 64 Newcastle 2800+, not overclocked. 1024MB of ram. Running in 32-bit protected mode on the i686 2.6.15-13 kernel. Linux icebox 2.6.15-13-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 19 17:12:14 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux Recognized something! My screensaver is back on! I disabled it to black screen earlier because the GLX code in the partial Via driver for my video chipset causes hard kernel freezes. Something turned it back on, apparently upgrading the screensaver package thought this a good idea. I have disabled random screen savers. ==Original description follows== If I run rhythmbox for a half hour or so listening to music, eventually the system suddenly freezes.

2006-02-25 13:35:11 John Moser linux: statusexplanation seems to be a linux issue, reassigning Increasing severity to critical, milestoning to dapper. This is a kernel bug; data loss happens when you crash your system a lot. Current workaround is switching to VESA, but this causes slowness to the max if any video watching happens.
