[Bug 34831] Re: Hardlock of entire system (Dapper Flight 5)

[Alberto Torres]

Yeah, you're right. It happens also for me in a hda-intel soundcard in a
laptop. The owner of that laptop has bought a sound blaster 24-bit usb,
and I made a script which unloads all snd_ modules and loads snd-usb-
audio and snd-seq, so he can use MIDI programs (although there is no
MIDI support for that soundcard in linux, I think).

What I wanted to say is that the problem may be tracked down starting in
emu10k1_synth.c which is 120 lines long.

By the way, it should be noted that I had a similar problem in breezy
(or hoary, not sure): The entire sistem freezes because snd-seq wasn't
loaded. So I would load that module, and it worked.
