Not sure what the problem might be but when I try to run audio-entropyd on an Atom box I'm setting up as a router, it seems to fail pretty badly: ichigo ~ # audio-entropyd -d hw:0 -v -n audio-entropyd starting up Get random data: read error: Input/output error Debug information: errno: 5=Input/output error (if applicable) Obtained 7 stack frames: audio-entropyd(+0x2d69)[0x1128dc1d69] audio-entropyd(+0x2ef0)[0x1128dc1ef0] audio-entropyd(+0x27cc)[0x1128dc17cc] audio-entropyd(+0x28f8)[0x1128dc18f8] audio-entropyd(main+0x1d9)[0x1128dc1d19] /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xfd)[0x32d464d6bfd] audio-entropyd(+0x1c29)[0x1128dc0c29] audio-entropyd stopping due to signal 15 stracing it, the problem is here: (yes I had to fix strace for it to tell me which ioctl is the problem) fcntl(6, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_LARGEFILE) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE, 0x3df23abcd80) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE, 0x3df23abcd80) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE, 0x3df23abcd80) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE, 0x3df23abcd80) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE, 0x3df23abcd80) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE, 0x3df23abcd80) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE, 0x3df23abcd80) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE, 0x3df23abcd80) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE, 0x3df23abcd80) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE, 0x3df23abcd80) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS, 0x3df23abcd80) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_SW_PARAMS, 0x3df23abccb0) = 0 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_PREPARE, 0) = 0 brk(0x35a23d5000) = 0x35a23d5000 ioctl(6, SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_READI_FRAMES, 0x3df23abd000) = -1 EIO (Input/output error) write(2, "Get random data: read error: Inp"..., 48Get random data: read error: Input/output error
same problem with 2.0.3? do other apps like aplay -Dhw:0 work?
