That is what I see everytime I start SecondLife, and it just hangs and sits at that point, with a black screen in the main window (nothing has at that point loaded in the main window).
My system has not changed (especially not the kernel or any audio interfaces), and I used to be able to use SecondLife no trouble (I was using it last night actually).
Any idea what might be causing this/if it is a bug?
Edit: Not sure what is wrong yet, but it turns out I need to restard the esd everytime I boot. WIll investigate further myself
