I've got almost the same problem with mod-0.81 (compiled with X support)
it sometimes hang itself giveing no audio output under X , if it has to
"ask" kerneld load the sound module, sometimes the playing child goes into
a unkillable zombie! blocking my soundcard, the only way to kill it is to
reboot :( I use my GUS for modplayin. I also have a SBpro in my computer.
My guess is that kerneld gets swaped out and takes to long to get back
into memory again ? anyone knows about what it can be ?
