Ashley- Thanks for good news. The ossmixer issue seems to relate to the python 2.4 in Slackware. I have not exactly figured out what it is. I think I am going ot just set the ossmixer plugin as a default option for the next set of packages. I keep Mplayer with the CPU auto-detect so that it will get good performance on all CPUs. Though I had the MGA driver built. I will need to go back and check that.
