[Bug 1347914] [NEW] Audacity crashes on startup while trying to read /proc/cpuinfo

 

Public bug reported:

root@tegra-ubuntu:~# audacity
ALSA lib pcm_dsnoop.c:618:(snd_pcm_dsnoop_open) unable to open slave
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1022:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave

It looks like audacity requires the Bogomips value from /proc/cpuinfo which is no more
present in modern kernels.
