#58 fts freeze linux with a maestro 2

[Paul Brossier]

I have been trying to launch fts on my old laptop, and it just
freezes my machine after a few seconds without any warning. I
then have to do a cold reboot.

Launching jmax works, but when it comes to fts, the box
crashes.

I could not find a track in syslog either. I use the es1968 alsa
module, and this happened using 2.4.18, 2.4.21 or even
2.6.0-test1.

I thought the problem could be the card is clocked at 48000 by
default, but trying to change this didn't help. Also, i noticed that
i have only one hw interface, but named 0:2 rather than 0:0.

Any thoughts ?
Thx, paul

Could you send me the content of ~/.fts_log ?
Which version of ALSA are you using ?
Does your soundcard works fine with other alsa application ?

attached is the buggy .fts_log
$ ll .fts_log
-rw-r--r-- 1 piem piem 4.1K Jul 31 00:05 .fts_log
$ objdump -p .fts_log
.fts_log: file format trad-core

also, the sound card is :
$ cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [2 ]: ES1968 - ESS ES1968 (Maestro 2)
ESS ES1968 (Maestro 2) at 0xf800, irq 5

Your .fts_log contains only 0.
.fts_log should be a text file not an object file.
Maybe you have overwrite content of your $HOME/.fts_log ?
Could you remove $HOME/.fts_log, restart jmax and check if
$HOME/.fts_log is still an object file ?

Thanks.
