Re: [Ekiga-devel-list] 100% cpu?

I have a little bit more data.
It seems to only do this thing, of hitting 100% cpu usage, after I get this message on the console: 

*** PULSEAUDIO: Unable to create stream.
Cannot set parameters Input/output error
It turns out that the new ubuntu that I've upgraded to has PulseAudio as its default sound server. Ekiga doesn't support pulseaudio natively.
Also: I ran ekiga through gdb and interrupted when it was hitting 100% cpu, so that I could look at a backtrace. I got a couple of different answers, such as:
This one, I got when ekiga was so far gone that I could not choose "quit" from the "call" menu.

Somebody is doing some polling, but I can't seem to get more information than that.
My theory is that this is not a bug in ekiga, but is instead a bug in the way that non-native pulseaudio programs interact with pulseaudio in the latest ubuntu.
The bug could be worked around in ekiga by making it support pulseaudio natively, but could only be fixed in those other packages. 

That's my theory.
Here's a backtrace I got another time. This one, I got after I chose "quit" from the "call" menu, which I did after it started hitting 100% cpu. The window disappeared, but the little phone icon remained in the notification area.

Deadlock?  A live one?
Here's another backtrace. This one I got when I couldn't hit "call > quit".

Finally, it seems that I did successfully compile it with gprof output, but the gmon.out file is only created if the program quits normally (or abnormally), and not if I have to kill it. In the past, I have been able to quit the program normally, even after it hits 100% cpu, but lately I've had to kill it, so the gmon.out is never created. 

That's what I've got.

Okay, thanks.

Hi. (sorry for cross-post, I didn't know which list was the one to post this question to -- devel or users). 

I've got ekiga 2.0.12.
Whenever I run it, it ends up taking up 95-99% of the CPU and not working. Sometimes it hangs when trying to connect to my sip account. Sometimes it hangs when trying to make a call. Sometimes it gets partway through a call before hanging. When it hangs in the middle of a call, I suddenly stop receiving audio.
However, even when it's at 99% cpu, it doesn't seem to become unresponsive. I can click the buttons and enter things into the address bar. I can open up the preferences screen or the account screen. I can quit it just fine. It just won't make calls or connect. 

What should I be looking at for more info, or what can I do about this?
I tried to compile it with profiling to see what function it's stalling in, but I don't seem to know how to do that. I used this configure command: 

./configure --prefix=/opt/ekiga CFLAGS="-g -pg"
However, when I run ekiga, no "gmon.out" file is produced. So if that's going to be the thing I need, then I'll need some help generating it. 

Thanks.
