Public bug reported: After dist-upgrading to intrepid, Ubuntu appears to hang when shutting down. I have traced this down to the ALSA shutdown script taking more than a minute (!) to save sound card state. More specifically:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ time amixer -c0 -q set Mic 0% mute real 0m8.061s user 0m0.003s sys 0m0.012s This is reproducable only in single-user mode. When I run the amixer command when logged in into X (I can even run the command from a console, as long as X is running), the same command takes only a few milliseconds as it should. I will attach an strace log from above call. Of interest is the following line: 4.013297 ioctl(5, FIONREAD, [37]) = 0 which occurs twice in the script. It seems to be expecting data from a network socket, but I can't figure out why. On a side note: why is amixer doing dns resolution, or any network activity for that matter? ** Affects: alsa-utils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- amixer timeout when muting sound card https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295136 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
