This sometimes results in the appearance of a page fault message when shutting down. The shutdown is never completed because the disk cannot be unmounted, presumably because the alsa driver is still frozen while trying load the soundfont from it. I found a thread in the alsa-devel archives discussing this problem: http://www.mail-archive.com/alsa-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg12386.html I see that the discussed patch has been applied, but I still have this problem. I haven't tested with versions prior to 1.0.4 because they did not compile with the later library version, but I do know that it was working not too long ago (with kernel 2.6.x). ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- vlajsa - 07-10-2004 20:39 CEST ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To add to this report! Sfxload don't work with alsa 1.0.5, too! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- deathpudding - 07-10-2004 21:45 CEST ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I marked this as a 1.0.5a bug, but it doesn't look like it showed up in the report. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pzad - 07-12-2004 13:31 CEST ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I tested this with 32 MB soundfont what I have and it worked. If this is free soundfont can you give link to it ???? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- deathpudding - 07-12-2004 23:03 CEST ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I've tried it with multiple soundfonts, but here are two examples: http://www.hammersound.net/cgi-bin/soundlink.pl?action=view_download_page;ID=116;SoundFont_Filename_Selected=mustheory2.sfArk http://bennetng.kc-studio.com/bennetng_AnotherGS_v2-0.exe Unfortunately the first requires the sfArk program, and the second is a self-extracting sfArk. Both should work under Wine, at least. edited on: 07-12-04 23:03 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- vlajsa - 08-03-2004 17:11 CEST ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hmm... I really don't know how I've missed this one! When playing some music with xmms through alsa plugin, the song continues to the end, and then silently driver hangs! Of course this happenes when trying to load soundfont while playing some song! Hope this can help!! I'm sure I can find sone fonts that dont need wine to use them. If you want me to do that, let me know! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pzad - 09-07-2004 09:37 CEST ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sorry, I can not reproduce this with alsa 1.0.6a + Audigy + kernel 2.6.5.
