[Bug 199992] Re: 1.3.4 beta won't get passed welcome dialog -> 100% CPU
I booted off a Karmic live CD to test this bug again. Audacity pauses at the welcome screen for a long time, but this time it did in fact eventually allow me to close the dialog. For a second program was usable and I could see that after loading test.wav, it had created a few _hundred_ tracks, called "test1", "test2", etc.. I tried to scroll down to see how many tracks it had created but the program became unresponsive and the CPU is now running at 100% doing something, presumably swapping memory or something. Eventually the whole desktop started periodically freezing, and I had to manage to click on my terminal window and Ctrl-C the process in order to be able to finish this message. I think there is clearly an input bug in Audacity that is not properly validating a maximum number of tracks, or otherwise not realizing that the computer cannot handle the load demanded by this corrupt file. -- 1.3.4 beta won't get passed welcome dialog -> 100% CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release?

Seems like it, yes. I'm running 8.10 (Audacity 1.3.5 beta) and it seems to go into an infinite loop trying to load that file. (100% CPU).

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 or 9.04? ** Changed in: audacity (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Tags added: testcase -- 1.3.4 beta won't get passed welcome dialog -> 100% CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 199992] Re: 1.3.4 beta won't get passed welcome dialog -> 100% CPU
Okay, it looks like this was due to the fact that I was passing an apparently corrupt .wav file as an argument when starting audacity. It has nothing to do with the welcome screen. The wav file was generated in Octave, so maybe it's actually a problem there (with the wavwrite function), but after launching Audacity and manually loading this file, audacity spins indefinitely at 100%. I've attached the file for reference. ** Attachment added: "Wav file which causes audacity to busywait using 100% CPU." http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12523033/test.wav -- 1.3.4 beta won't get passed welcome dialog -> 100% CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
