Summary:                    some odd conditions cause gnomemeeting to crash on
takeoff - they blame libasound
Description: 
Here is what I reported to the gnomemeeting people:

Steps to reproduce the crash:
1. start it

Expected Results:
It should run

How often does this happen?
Every time

Admittedly, this was vague, and I finally tracked it down (see "Steps to
reproduce" below).

But first, here was the gnomemeeting traceback:

Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/gnomemeeting'

 zsd - 08-03-05 04:01 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The following didn't get into the bug report above... here is info on how
to reproduce the bug:

I have discovered a set of conditions which cause this bug to manifest
itself.

First, after submitting the bug report I discovered that gnomemeeting was
working if I used a USB webcam that used the ov511 module and DID NOT have
a
built-in mic.  I usually use a Logitech webcam (which uses pwc+pwcx
modules
under 2.4.xx) but which also has a built in mic (which uses the
snd-usb-audio).

Next I discovered that when I created a new user on my computer which was
NOT in
the "audio" group, gnomemeeting did not crash and burn on takeoff when
using the
Logitech web cam.  However, the config druid did not register the USB mic
as an
option.

After a lot of searching, I discovered that /dev/snd/pcmC1D0c was missing
(presumably clobbered by udev in a 2.6.1x kernel I use some times) and
that
restoring this file brought the world back to its previous blissful
state.

It is interesting that being in the audio group is a significant
difference
here, because even with the audio devices (/dev/snd/*, /dev/dsp*,
/dev/mixer*,
...) chmod'ed to 666, the user w/o "audio" could run gnomemeeting, while
the
user with "audio" could not.

Obviously, the missing file is a local config problem that was my fault (I
could
gripe about udev, but that's another story), however, 
(a) the connection with me being in the audio group is mysterious, and
(b) a more gracefull error message (or actually working regardless) would
be nicer.

The following didn't get into the bug report above... here is info on how
to reproduce the bug:

I have discovered a set of conditions which cause this bug to manifest
itself.

First, after submitting the bug report I discovered that gnomemeeting was
working if I used a USB webcam that used the ov511 module and DID NOT have
a
built-in mic.  I usually use a Logitech webcam (which uses pwc+pwcx
modules
under 2.4.xx) but which also has a built in mic (which uses the
snd-usb-audio).

Next I discovered that when I created a new user on my computer which was
NOT in
the "audio" group, gnomemeeting did not crash and burn on takeoff when
using the
Logitech web cam.  However, the config druid did not register the USB mic
as an
option.

After a lot of searching, I discovered that /dev/snd/pcmC1D0c was missing
(presumably clobbered by udev in a 2.6.1x kernel I use some times) and
that
restoring this file brought the world back to its previous blissful
state.

It is interesting that being in the audio group is a significant
difference
here, because even with the audio devices (/dev/snd/*, /dev/dsp*,
/dev/mixer*,
...) chmod'ed to 666, the user w/o "audio" could run gnomemeeting, while
the
user with "audio" could not.

Obviously, the missing file is a local config problem that was my fault (I
could
gripe about udev, but that's another story), however, 
(a) the connection with me being in the audio group is mysterious, and
(b) a more gracefull error message (or actually working regardless) would
be nicer.

i know this backtrace from debian-pre-sarge times a few months ago and also
had some problems with alsa 1.0.8.

use gm >= 1.2.1 and alsa >= 1.0.9 and update your system libs.

Description: 
Here is what I reported to the gnomemeeting people:

Steps to reproduce the crash:
1. start it

Expected Results:
It should run

How often does this happen?
Every time

Admittedly, this was vague, and I finally tracked it down (see "Steps to
reproduce" below).

But first, here was the gnomemeeting traceback:
