Hi Tried asking this question elsewhere and didn't get any answers...
Anyone have any ideas of what this might be about ? �I've installed Debian Sarge into my workstation. �It's really nice. �Look forward to turning some work out with it. Everything seems to work even after updating to the 2.6.8 kernel and associated Nvidia drivers. �The sound works fine with my old JVC tuner and Kscd. �Sounds really good with my Ensoniq Audio PCI card. There's just an annoying problem with XMMS. �It won't play my MP3 or Ogg Vorbis based music. �XMMS itself is working but no music comes out of it. �I notice that at the bottom of the XMMS config file there is a line which points at a sound plugin.... output_plugin=/usr/lib/xmms/Output/libOSS.so.... � there are also some others in .... �/usr/lib/xmms/Output.... libALSA.so libarts.la libarts.so libdisk_writer.so libOSS.so My own system uses Alsa. �I've tried libALSA.so but that doesn't work either. �If no sound was coming out of the speakers I would suspect the kernel but since I can use other applications to play music it would seem to be the this is related to XMMS ? �Bottom of the XMMS config file below........ equaliser_band9=0 output_plugin=/usr/lib/xmms/Output/libALSA.so disabled_iplugins= url_history_length=0 generic_title_format=%p - %t skin=/usr/share/xmms/Skins/FB2 filesel_path=/home/richard/mp3 Is it something to do with libarts ? -- Richard www.sheflug.co.uk
