Folks, I have followed the suggestions given by Tanu Kaskinen, sadly I'm having problems. With new settings the program crashes with memory protection violation. Despite repeated attempts, I am unable to produce a meaningful bt under gdb. Furthermore, pulseaudio does not seem to run for me under valgrind. THEREFORE, the question is: Can anyone else duplicate the problem? % cat /etc/fedora-release Fedora release 8 (Werewolf) % rpm -q pulseaudio ladspa-swh-plugins pulseaudio-0.9.7-0.17.svn20071017.fc8 ladspa-swh-plugins-0.4.15-11.fc8 %cat ~/.pulse/match.table .* 32000 % tail -4 /etc/pulse/default.pa load-module module-match load-module module-ladspa-sink sink_name=ladspa_out channels=2 master=alsa_output.pci_1274_5000_alsa_playback_0 plugin=mbeq_1197 label=mbeq control=0,0,5,10,20,25,35,45,50,50,55,55,55,55,55 % pulseaudio -v I: main.c: Page size is 4096 bytes I: main.c: Fresh high-resolution timers available!
