Are you using ALSA or OSS? ALSA is multithreaded and allows multiple processes to use the sound system. OSS/esd uses locking causing only one process to use it at a time, and blocking other processes which are trying to use it too. Quit xmms. Run "ps ax" and see if there are any processes named "esd" running. Kill them if any and then run xmms. Else, if you are using alsa sound drivers, use the ALSA output plugin of xmms (should be part of xmms). - Sandip -- Sandip Bhattacharya * Puroga Technologies * [EMAIL PROTECTED] Work: http://www.puroga.com * Home: http://www.sandipb.net PGP/GPG Signature: 51A4 6C57 4BC6 8C82 6A65 AE78 B1A1 2280 A129 0FF3 Electrons on a bender _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
