(this way you also drain battery less) It would seem to be a bug in Browser/Flashplayer, it has somehow corrupted its ESD output (writes less to ESD socket than it should). Because of this, ESD sound daemon starts busylooping, which will stop all other clients that try to output any sounds (including Desktop). This behavior may be caused by a "bugfix" we've inherited from the upstream ESD version: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=55877 To unfreeze the device, you need to do in (e.g. SSH) console: killall esd Even if ESD would work around[1] this issue, Browser would still be unusable. To get Browser working again you need to do: killall browserd (killing the daemons should get them restarted.) > - BUT I can't get this posted on bugs - no matter what I do. Sorry, what do you mean? > You have a bug number - what's with that? I found it from our internal bug tracker, but this issue doesn't seem to be publicly reported. That's why I asked you to report it to bugs.maemo.org (the public/community bug tracker) so that somebody could e.g. fix it for Diablo community updates (ESD isn't used in Fremantle). I could then attach a potential patch to fix the ESD issue to that bug. >>>> (I.e. is something just grabbing the input instead the device >>>> freezing.) >>> No. >>>> Do you have swap enabled?
