xmms segfaulting on 2.4.18 and 2.4.19-pre2-ac2 + oops

[Vincent Bernat <bernat@free.fr>]

Hi !

I encounter problems with xmms segfaulting on two different
kernels. The first one is 2.4.18-xfs-preempt-lockbreak-bttv. I use
alsa drivers (0.90.0b12) for my SB PCI 128 card. The second one is
2.4.19-pre2-ac2 with shawn patch (xfs + rmap 12g) and preempt patch.

Here are the oops for the 2.4.18 :

ksymoops 2.4.4 on i686 2.4.18-xfs-preempt-lock-bttv.  Options used
     -V (default)
     -k /proc/ksyms (default)
     -l /proc/modules (default)
     -o /lib/modules/2.4.18-xfs-preempt-lock-bttv/ (default)
     -m /boot/System.map-2.4.18-xfs-preempt-lock-bttv (specified)

I don't have any problem with the network card after the oops, however
I can't use the sound card any more (already used). xmms wasn't using
the network. I didn't do a ksymoops on the another oops but it was
located on 3c59x too.

With 2.4.17, I didn't have this problem.
