I'm running -CURRENT, so not sure if this applies to 5.3 I noticed some problems with snd_via8233 with prior kernels (~ < 17 sep, last I built with problems was around 10 sep) Under heavy disk activity (cvsup, buildworld) esdplay almost completly crashed the system.. x was dead (mouse didn't move), most services were dead (ssh ftp natd), but it replied to pings. With no disk activy, I was able to listen to a stream for hours + kde sounds + edsplay with no problems . With last kernel I built (17 sep) system seems to be ok, and haven't been able to reproduce the problem again. I think there is some other minor problem with esdplay, but haven't been able to trace it, or even confirm it. Building a new kernel now, and try to find the problem (or see if it even exists). I' m also using NETGRAPH modules (dinamically loaded) for pppoe with no problems whatsoever for almost a month now.
