SonicCell freezes occasionally with Linux

Post by eudoxos »

Hi everybody,

I am using SonicCell with Linux (ubuntu 10.04, i.e. kernel 2.6.32 and ALSA 1.0.22; but the issue was present before as well) and I am experiencing random freezes of the SonicCell (doesn't generate sound, does not respond to buttons being pressed, the display is frozen as well). Sometimes, they happen once in an hour, sometims every few minutes. The unit has to be powered off and on to make it work.

It used to have to do with simultatenous MIDI and audio communication, but that does not seem to be the case anymore. It never freezes when not connected to computer. I tested the unit with MacOS X and the driver provided on the CD, and it worked flawlessly. Firmware is at the latest version 1.20.

Does anyone have the same experience? Or suggestions?

Cheers, eudoxos.
