I think it does help a lot but I'm not sure about which direction this is going in... I've installed.... mozilla-plugin-vlc libvorbis0a libvorbisenc2 mp3c mp32ogg arson libmp3-info-perl libstring-shellquote-perl libunicode-string-perl mpc vorbisgain id3v2 normalize vcdimager xmms-mad What happens now when I start XMMS is that I get the following GTK based error message... " failed to open audio output Alsa 1.2.10 output plugin" What to do next ? -- Richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
