Interestingly, when I try to boot without devfs things don't want to work (alsa or oss) - probably because my non-devfs dev filesystem is broken. The modules load but programs can't find what they're looking for in /dev. I'm happy with devfs anyway for the most part. (the exception being that lsof doesn't seem to tell me anything) I did some more digging and found this: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address cca2c000 printing eip: cc9b4f7b *pde = 01228067 *pte = 00000000 Oops: 0000 CPU: 0 EIP: 0010:[snd-pcm-oss:__insmod_snd-pcm-oss_S.text_L34102+32507/34292] Not tainted EFLAGS: 00210202 eax: cc9b4f7b ebx: 00000000 ecx: fff9e73f edx: 04ba03f2 esi: cca28012 edi: c42a6c10 ebp: cca2bffe esp: cab8de8c ds: 0018 es: 0018 ss: 0018 Process timidity (pid: 26074, stackpage=cab8d000) Stack: cc9b2222 c42a6b80 c42c8b00 cab8deb8 000003f6 ffffffff 00000805 cc9019e8 cc9b4da1 cc9b4ef2 cc9b4f7b c42a6bf0 00000000 00000004 00000004 00000001 03f203f2 000007d3 00000805 00000800 c42a6b80 c3429ec0 cc9b546c c42a6b80 Call Trace: [snd-pcm-oss:__insmod_snd-pcm-oss_S.text_L34102+20898/34292] [snd-pcm-oss:__insmod_snd-pcm-oss_O/lib/modules/2.4.20/alsa/snd-pcm-os insmod_snd-pcm-oss_S.text_L34102+32033/34292] [snd-pcm-oss:__insmod_snd-pcm-oss_S.text_L34102+32370/34292] [snd-pcm-oss:__insmod_snd-pcm-oss_S.tex [snd-pcm-oss:__insmod_snd-pcm-oss_S.text_L34102+33772/34292] [snd-pcm-oss:__insmod_snd-pcm-oss_S.text_L34102+21911/34292] [snd-pcm-oss:__insmod_ 34292] [snd-pcm-oss:__insmod_snd-pcm-oss_S.text_L34102+5339/34292] [snd-pcm-oss:__insmod_snd-pcm-oss_S.text_L34102+13331/34292] [sys_write+163/272 [system_call+51/56] Code: 8b 45 00 eb ac 0f b6 45 00 c1 e0 08 eb a3 81 fa 00 80 00 00 So it looks like a driver or OSS emulation problem of some sort. -- Hans Fugal | De gustibus non disputandum est. http://hans.fugal.net/ | Debian, vim, mutt, ruby, text, gpg http://gdmxml.fugal.net/ | WindowMaker, gaim, UTF-8, RISC, JS Bach --------------------------------------------------------------------- GnuPG Fingerprint: 6940 87C5 6610 567F 1E95 CB5E FC98 E8CD E0AA D460
