btw, I've resorted to NOT using XMMS - the issues were happening a LOT more
often when i use it instead of, say, vlc or beep.
I remember having this same issue on 6.2 with the drivers in the kernel. The
latest binary drivers from Ariff would work fine, though i had given up on xmms
by then and using vlc for a while.
cheers,
