Sorry it's so last minute with release scheduled in 6 days, but I'd suggest
testing this patch for inclusion in 6.1.1. I have tested and verified only
on 2.3.5.
I don't have time to test this myself, so I'm going to have to ask someone
else to do a full 6.1.1-pre1 build without the patch and ensure the bug this
fixes can be triggered. If so, I'll add the patch (assuming further testing
shows the patch does indeed fix the problem).
Looking at the gentoo, debian, and blfs references, this seems to be
triggered by (a) nvidia drivers, or (b) gnome (versions/items not
specified), or (c) xmms (1.2.8? debian version) without libmikmod2, or
(d) some OOo issue. From here, trying to trigger the bug looks like
searching for a needle in a haystack.
The xmms debian version is way before anything we'd use, so is this
really an nvidia bug, or is the OOo problem not related to nvidia binary
drivers?
Personally, I've not seen any problems with xmms (1.2.10) or xine that
sound like this bug, even on my 6.1 systems.
