[Bug 10116] New: A warning should be shown if a sound subsystem cannot be open
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10116 Summary: A warning should be shown if a sound subsystem cannot be open Product: Wine Version: CVS/GIT Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: wine-multimedia AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: t.artem(a)mailcity.com There are some sound/music applications which do not have any exception handling for a situation when a sound cannot be routed/output. So, if your sound system is busy (some cheap AC97/HDA ALSA audio and no hardware mixing) and you try to run such an application it can die with some strange error when trying to play any sound, e.g.: Backtrace: =>1 0x00000000 (0x0033ff08) 2 0x7ee4f9ab in kernel32 (+0x4f9ab) (0x0033ffe8) 3 0xb7e94707 wine_switch_to_stack+0x17() in libwine.so.1 (0x00000000) 0x00000000: addb %al,0x0(%eax) To give a user a hint, it will be sufficient to MsgBox("Sound system is busy. Expect an application failure."); -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Tashkinov <t.artem(a)mailcity.com> 2007-10-20 10:55:57 --- 1) It's not normal for an average not techie Linux user to turn on warning and like 2) It's not normal for applications to _crash_ when sound subsystem is busy If you still think it's OK then leave this bug closed. I'm plain disappointed. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
