Subject: modprobe -v snd-seq-oss freezes (sb live! kernel 2.6.5)
Date: Mon, 05 Jul 2004 03:03:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <40E9275C.2010707@bigfoot.com> (raw)

   alsa used to work on my system, I didn't change anything I think
might be related and suddenly the modprobe -v snd-seq-oss freezes (does 
not return, cannot be interrupted either but the rest of the system 
(including audio and alsa native midi) works OK).

   system:

   debian unstable
   kernel 2.6.5 (with alsa)

   I did not change kernel or modules (I checked and there are no
new/changed files under /lib/modules/2.6.5) yet suddenly (after reboot)
the oss sequencer cannot be loaded. There are no (related) messages in
/var/log/syslog.

   jojda:/home/erik# modprobe -v snd-seq-oss
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.5/kernel/sound/core/seq/snd-seq.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.5/kernel/sound/core/seq/snd-seq-midi-event.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.5/kernel/sound/core/seq/oss/snd-seq-oss.ko

   and the modprobe does not exit, it just sits there. udev creates
devices (see below) but there are not usable, e.g.:

jojda:/var/log# sfxload /data/music/soundfont/creative/8MBGMSFX.SF2
/dev/sequencer: No such device

   udev says (in daemon.log):

Jul  5 01:18:24 jojda udev[2821]: configured rule in
'/etc/udev/rules.d/udev.rules' at line 38 applied, 'midiC0D2' becomes

Jul  5 01:20:22 jojda ntpd[2392]: kernel time sync enabled 0001

   any ideas on how to troubleshoot this?

   TIA,

	erik
