Package: gcompris Version: 12.01-1 Severity: important Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
> What led up to the situation? starting gcompris on PowerPPC G4 (MacMini) with no special arguments will crash shortly after gcompris is emitting some sounds. I guess when gcompris tries to emit several sounds like music and click sound through gstreamer (multiple sounds at the same time?) > * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? For now, I found two workarounds : 1. disable the sound by launching like this "gcompris -m" (gcompris without sound is like playing a game without a sound ~blaster~ card ;-) 2. recompiling gcompris with --enable-sdlmixer, perfectly stable! The patch is attached (I guess you will not like it --> rolling back and use again libsdl-mixer) Please note I tried uninstalling PulseAudio and install Alsa. I tried also JACK audio etc. all without success.. gcompris was always crashing with gstreamer > * What was the outcome of this action? > * What outcome did you expect instead? well if I compile gcompris with sdlmixer my daughter is able to play with sound for more than 2 minutes! I don't know all the story why you switched from sdlmixer to gstreamer but please consider rollback back to sdlmixer at least for gcompris on Wheezy (PowerPC) Best Regards, Guy Baconniere TECHNICAL DETAILS ** Message: Binary relocation disabled ** (process:18779): WARNING **: exec_prefix NONE Cannot connect to server socket err = Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type Cannot connect to server request channel jack server is not running or cannot be started (gcompris:18779): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_window_set_type_hint: assertion `!gtk_widget_get_mapped (GTK_WIDGET (window))' failed package_data_dir = /usr/share/gcompris/boards package_skin_dir = /usr/share/gcompris/boards/skins package_menu_dir = /usr/share/gcompris/boards package_locale_dir = /usr/share/locale package_plugin_dir = /usr/lib/gcompris package_python_plugin_dir= /usr/share/gcompris/python user_dir = /home/lisa/My GCompris Infos: Config dir '/home/lisa/.config/.gcompris' Users dir '/home/lisa/My GCompris' Database '/home/lisa/.config/.gcompris/gcompris_sqlite.db' Cannot connect to server socket err = Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type Cannot connect to server request channel jack server is not running or cannot be started Cannot connect to server socket err = Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type Cannot connect to server request channel jack server is not running or cannot be started Cannot connect to server socket err = Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type Cannot connect to server request channel jack server is not running or cannot be started (gcompris:18779): GStreamer-WARNING **: Trying to join task 0x109eb028 from its thread would deadlock.
