jaraeez Posted November 22, 2004 Report Share Posted November 22, 2004 Hi all, Recently i810_audio driver seems to get corrupt (or something). Twice now booting MDK 10 (a gap of 3 weeks) the whole start up process has been very slow. Then once started the processor runs at 100%, the mouse is very sloooww. Running "dmesg" shows this error "i810_audio: drain_dac, dma timeout?" Any ideas!!. To rectify this I have to change drivers to ALSA (which plays to fast) reboot, then pick i810_audio, reboot, then all is fine again... TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devries Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 Try shutting down arts instead. (kde control center, sound & multimedia, soundsystem. uncheck box) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaraeez Posted November 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 sure... I'll give it a go when I'm home. Doing this though will not solve my problem will it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devries Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 If you haven't installed a new kernel you're still using the same module. So the problem can't be with the module since it worked before. That means some application is the culprit. Now since arts is known (or esd) to cause sometimes problems it is a good guess that shutting it down will solve your problems. Give it a try :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
