Summary: make test caused machine hangup
Initial Comment:
OS and Python versions:
Linux turb 2.2.17-8enterprise #1 SMP Fri Nov 17
16:02:20 EST 2000 i686 unknown
Python 2.1.1 (#1, Aug 15 2001, 16:39:55)
[GCC 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.0)] on linux2
In following the standard procedure:
./configure
make
make test
our RedHat machine locked up when testing
linuxaudiodev.
The speaker on the machine was uttering nonsense
repeatedly. We had to reboot the machine and run fsck
to clear things up.
Thanks,

Why do you think this is a Python bug? Python was acessing
the hardware of your computer through the official
interfaces that your operating system offers for that.
Unless you can demonstrate that it did wrong doing so,
I'll assume that either your machine is misconfigured, or
the sound drivers of your system are broken. In that case,
you best disable sound support, since it won't work
anyways.
Since the specific test works without problems on any
other Linux system, I propose to close this bug as "Works
for me".
