Is the active network connection plausibly connected to this problem?
Or am I guilty of a post hoc fallacy?
Thanks much.

Just give me any clue where to look *please*. I have run out of
ideas. I don't have any idea what the error message is supposed to
mean to me.
I'm using a 2.6.3 kernel on Slack 9.1.
Thanks much.

Hey ho.
I am still bumfuzzled regarding my recurrent errors with my intel8x0
card in my NEC Versa P520 laptop. As far as I know, others with the
same laptop are not experiencing these semaphore errors.
The problem is that I often lose the soundcard completely, and see
these messages in /var/log/

Hey ho.
Ever since upgrading from Slackware 9.0 to 9.1, my soundcard is flaky.
Often, when I try to send something to the card (through whatever
means), I get no sound and the program sits and waits for a response.
For instance, if I type 'aplay ', then aplay does not exit and
no sound comes out.
Hey ho.
I recently upgraded my Slackware distribution and so had to re-install
alsa (I'm using the latest stable packages, including 0.5.12
drivers). I've had problems getting things to work since.
I see that there is no /proc/asound/dev directory created after
loading all of the relevant modul
