Basically, correct, except that pnmixer itself crashes when started at login (upon a first boot). However, when started later on (from the commandline, but I am not sure that this has anything to do with it), it does not crash but gives that error message, which I do not know how to handle and works normally.

We can not. It is just that pnmixer crashes upon login and first boot and there was an error message in the dmesg (some days ago) so that made me wonder.

How do I get such a kernel?

Btw, I am also getting, occassionally the following in my dmesg:


[30472.635743] Browser[14212]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fc6a88f2445 sp 00007fffbecd1290 error 6 in libmozalloc.so[7fc6a88f1000+2000]

What exactly does this mean? Is this serious? I am at firefox-33.0-1.fc20.x86_64 but the phenomenon was also there before the firefox update.


Thanks again!

Best wishes,
Ranjan
