Re: Mysterious Hard Freeze?

It sounds like you ran out of memory. Perhaps next time try only opening one app at a time. It could also be that your processor got too hot and fried your sound card, but I think that's unlikely unless this has happened often. Does completely turning off the machine and doing a cold boot fix the sound card?

Can you post here what stream you're trying to record? I never use X for stream capture. Apparently there are several alternatives, depending on the content. Perhaps MPlayer would work. For regular mp3 streams, I use plain old wget and it has worked fine for years.

Well, this morning I was running xvfb useing firefox to rip an archived

hearing 2&1half words looing around from the stream. I had no speakup, could
not change consoles, no back space beel, no1 could ssh in here. So, after
power-cycling the machine we see nothing in /var/log/messages relating with
what happened.
Also, since then 1 of my 4 sound-cards is not showing up-and-that was a
hi-end which we could adjust bass-and-trebble.
I am not actually running an x session, but I sure wish there were other
ways of ripping audio, without xvfb-and-firefox, which many times do not
shutdown.
Thanks in advance for any ideas in where else to look for clues of what
happened? O, this is Debian 2.6.32 because so-far this DecTalk U S B will
not speak in a later kernel
