Hi Andrew, just a copule of problems with kernel 2.6.1-mm1
- artsd running with ALSA gives the error: "CPU overloading, stopping"
just few seconds after it began to play a song. It's a P4 HT with SMP
enabled.
- Xfree hang: in a Dell Latitude laptop (P3-M 933), xfree (4.3, last
version in Debian experimental) hangs and shows a white screen. The
keyboard is also blocked, but login from the network is still OK. There
is no any error message. I also see the same effect when I tryed to run
Xine in full screen mode.
Hope this helps.

Same problem here with a dual PIII, 1GB RAM, BTW, I'm uncompressing
kernel to build the 2.6.1-mm2 kernel, and preemption is not doing a very
good job, xmms (using xmms-alsa) skips for about 1 second every 5 secs
or so.

I dont have that problem, using nvidia propietary module, or the xfree
nv one.
Are you sure you didnt change the keyboard recently ?? maybe xfree is
misconfigured, because that happened to me because of a miscofiguration
of a new keyboard.

That message came from artsd, not the kernel I assume. There's a big ALSA
patch in mm1, but how it could cause artsd to do this I do not know.

Could you please do a `patch -p1 -R' of
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.1/2.6.1-mm1/broken-out/DRM-cvs-update.patch
and see if that fixes it?
