>Description:
When the OSS driver version 391e from http://www.opensound.com/freebsd.html
is loaded and when I start any X application, the FreeBSD PC freezes and
it then reboots automatically.

It has been reported by the company developing the OSS sound driver
that the same driver is working fine under NetBSD and OpenBSD. The same
code is not working properly under FreeBSD. The company also reported
that the FreeBSD team looked at the OSS code and did not find any bugs.
It has also been suggested that there might be a bug in the virtual
memory kernel unit of FreeBSD.

>How-To-Repeat:
just by starting any X applications when the OSS driver is loaded.
>Fix:
It has been reported by the company developing the OSS sound driver
that the same driver is working fine under NetBSD and OpenBSD. The same
code is not working properly under FreeBSD. The company also reported
that the FreeBSD team looked at the OSS code and did not find any bugs.
It has also been suggested that there might be a bug in the virtual
memory kernel unit of FreeBSD.
