Hello, I send the message below to debian-kde before, but got no reply. I think this is a serious issue and would like some advice on how to proceed.
TIA, Frans Pop ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Konqueror (Audio CD Browser) causes system freezes Date: Sunday 04 April 2004 19:55 From: Frans Pop <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: debian-kde@lists.debian.org Hello all, I have done a clean install of unstable using the Debian Installer. When I opened Konqueror as file browser I got system freezes. It looks like this was caused by the Audio CD Browser which was causing insmod of modules that are wrong for my system (drivers for weird CD drives). It looks like the freeze occurs only during the last probes (see the syslog below). I have solved the problem by adding the following lines in /etc/modutils: alias block-major-15 off alias block-major-17 off alias block-major-18 off alias block-major-23 off alias block-major-24 off alias block-major-25 off But I guess this kind of behavior would confuse the hell out of a newbie. So, is this a problem in KDE and should a bug be filed? TIA, Frans My system is i686 with the standard Debian 2.4.25 kernel image: Linux sauron 2.4.25-1-686 #1 Tue Feb 24 10:55:59 EST 2004 i686 GNU/Linux I have 2 CD drives in my system: a regular ide-cdrom and a CD-Writer on ide-scsi. Both are configured normally and working fine. <SNIP from syslog> Apr 4 18:11:47 localhost kernel: Sony CDU-535: probing base address 340 Apr 4 18:11:55 localhost kernel: Did not find a Sony CDU-535 drive Apr 4 18:11:55 localhost insmod: /lib/modules/2.4.25-1-686/kernel/drivers/cdrom/sonycd535.o: init_module: Input/output error Apr 4 18:11:55 localhost insmod: Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
