Kodi hangs the system

I am searching solution for this for about a half year.
XBMC/KODI freezes whole system (it doesn't respond to any input, even http or ssh stops to respond), sometimes whein it starts, often when searching for new files in music folders, sometimes totally randomly. Here is the last debug log. It's from clean install of kodi with deleted .kodi dir.

I am running a fully updated Arch Linux x86 on old Pentium 4 computer with 1.5GB RAM and AMD Radeon X1650 PRO using open drivers.

Re: Kodi hangs the system

You should probably post to the kodi forums/linux section.

Re: Kodi hangs the system

I tried, but they told me, it is probably kernel bug, that kodi can't hang the system. That's why i am writing also here if anybody can help.

Re: Kodi hangs the system

i'm having the same exact issue with a newer pc (intel i5-2400, 8GB ram,  nvidia geforce gts 450 with nvidia drivers) with arch64

my last log is here http://pastebin.com/4q49xy9j and it hanged while automatically scanning video source..

actually i'm running arch64 also on an older laptop, with different hardware, but the os is configured exactly in the same way, and xbmc/kodi works flawlessly..

At the same problem on the Acer Aspire 5610 (i686) helped to uninstall PulseAudio.
