Well, 2.6.7 and 2.6.8 is OKAY, it says like this: cleaning /var OK cleaning /tmp OK Detecting ALSA Restoring MixerLevels Setting up fonts.. Entering Runlevel3 etc.. 2.6.8.1 is doing this: cleaning /var OK cleaning /tmp OK *hangs up* pushing ctrl + c setting up fonts... entering runlevel3 so it boots up: if i do a /etc/init.d/alsasound status it says its startet, and it works! shutdown or reboot says also this: unloading ALSA restoring MixerLebels i have _no_ clue what's this annoying Ctrl + C at bootup, also sound seems to have a lower quality then on a 2.6.7 or 2.6.8 kernel Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
this is the nopaste: + echo -e ' * Using ALSA OSS emulation' * Using ALSA OSS emulation + return 0 ++ modprobe -l ++ grep 'snd.*oss' ++ sed -e 's:\/.*\/::' -e 's:\..*::' + OSS=snd-seq-oss snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss + DRIVERS=snd-seq-oss + DRIVERS=snd-pcm-oss snd-seq-oss + DRIVERS=snd-mixer-oss snd-pcm-oss snd-seq-oss + '[' -z 'snd-mixer-oss snd-pcm-oss snd-seq-oss ' ']' + '[' -z 'snd-mixer-oss snd-pcm-oss snd-seq-oss ' ']' + '[' '!' snd-mixer-oss = off ']' ++ cut '-d ' -f1 /proc/modules ++ egrep '^snd-mixer-oss$' + '[' -z ']' ++ cut '-d ' -f1 /proc/modules ++ egrep '^snd_mixer_oss$' + '[' -z ']' + einfo 'Loading: snd-mixer-oss' + '[' no '!=' yes ']' * Loading: snd-mixer-oss + return 0 + /sbin/modprobe snd-mixer-oss + '[' '!' snd-pcm-oss = off ']' ++ cut '-d ' -f1 /proc/modules ++ egrep '^snd-pcm-oss$' + '[' -z ']' ++ cut '-d ' -f1 /proc/modules ++ egrep '^snd_pcm_oss$' + '[' -z ']' + einfo 'Loading: snd-pcm-oss' + '[' no '!=' yes ']' + echo -e ' * Loading: snd-pcm-oss' * Loading: snd-pcm-oss + return 0 + /sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss + '[' '!' snd-seq-oss = off ']' ++ cut '-d ' -f1 /proc/modules ++ egrep '^snd-seq-oss$' + '[' -z ']' ++ cut '-d ' -f1 /proc/modules ++ egrep '^snd_seq_oss$' + '[' -z ']' + einfo 'Loading: snd-seq-oss' + return 0 + /sbin/modprobe snd-seq-oss + sleep 1 + '[' -f /proc/asound/seq/drivers ']' ++ awk -F, '$2~/^empty$/ {print $1}' /proc/asound/seq/drivers <-- here it hangs up! hitting ctrl + c continues booting
I have the same problem, and did a cat on /proc/asound/seq/drivers and the file seems to be infinite long, containing two lines, repeated forever snd-seq-midi,loaded,requested,1 snd-seq-oss,loaded,0
yep, it's the same at my box.. did u alsa in kernel? or did u emerge the stuff? i've made the kernel again with alsa stuff as MODUL! anything fine now, but i've a short black screen if it loads the module at startup
I used the emerged alsa drivers, but now compiled all the necessary modules from kernel sources and it works fine (and the seq/drivers is now two lines long *g*). Thanks for the hint. I couldn't reboot, because I am still compiling the gimp, so I restarted /etc/init.d/alsasound from a terminal under gnome and experienced no screen blanking or other weird stuff, maybe when I reboot.
This issue seems to be fixed, closing the bug.
