Yes, moving to kernel 2.2.18.0 seems to have fixed the problem for me. No
lockups yet. I'm still running Mandrake 7.2 and not yet Cooker. Hopefully,
the code that fixed this problem is making its way into the 2.4.test
kernels, as well.
Regards,
Scott

I wonder if you have a SoundBlaster PCI card? I do, and the KDE Cd Player
has been causing the same symptoms you describe for me.
Supposedly, the new 2.2.18 kernel fixes a IRQ leak related to the sound
blaster card. I'll try it soon and see if it makes a difference in my
case.

Subject: [Cooker] Kaiman locked my machine.
Was sorting through some .mp3s, and launched Kaiman, via the "KDE Media
Player enqueue" action in Konqueror. Everything was fine, until I hit
the
play button. Then the system froze fairly hard. The mouse refused to
move,
ctrl-alt-bs had no effect, etc. The system responded to ping, and to
alt-sysrq-b, but didn't seem to respond to alt-sysrq-u. alt-sysrq-k only
had the effect of destablizing my screen (like one of the syncs was way
off or missing). ctrl-alt-f[1-6] had no effect, either before or after
an
alt-sysrq-r. Any clue what might have caused this? I realize it's not
much
info to go on, so let me know what else you'd like to know, and I'll try
to provide it. Here's a list of the possibly relevant packages I have
installed:
