Re: [Cooker] Kaiman locked my machine.
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.

Re: [Cooker] Kaiman locked my machine.
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. -- Scott Langley [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.scottlangley.com - Original Message - From: "Trebor A.

[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.

[Cooker] kaiman... is this *supposed* to do something?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hey there... Question: has anyone (using mandrake) gotten kaiman to do anything? On the multimedia menu there is an entry for KDE Multimedia player. Selecting this menu entry does nothing. I note that the menu entry points to kaiman. Sound otherwise works on my system. I note that the file association for mp3 files points to kaiman. Clicking on an mp3 file does nothing. Using xmms to open an mp3 works fine. Running kaiman on the commandline results in: Skipped one element '49' Skipped one element '50' Preset_1_Button not handled yet. Ignoring style element Preset_1_Button Preset_2_Button not handled yet. Ignoring style element Preset_2_Button Preset_3_Button not handled yet. Ignoring style element Preset_3_Button Preset_4_Button not handled yet. Ignoring style element Preset_4_Button Preset_5_Button not handled yet. Ignoring style element Preset_5_Button Preset_6_Button not handled yet. Ignoring style element Preset_6_Button Found 24 elements. and then it just sits there and does nothing. I got the source for kdemultimedia, compiled kaiman and running the resulting binary gives the same messages. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: PGP 7.0 iQA/AwUBOiGrjAhKySqSS+rVEQJnIgCgxH0gGrTjNutURSj/s0Jc0/WHargAoOcJ 2/Gv3aq4qxfgEEWVE9YFJXl9 =eHHN -END PGP SIGNATURE-

I was able to get kde 2 to compile and run yesterday on a gcc 2.96 machine. I am currently doing a final set of compiles and then will do an install. If all works I will recommend an update to cooker users. -Chris
