Hi,

I have a linux box (RH 6.1) and xmms (the mp3 player) runs 
fine on that.

Now, I want to start xmms from a remote X session.
When I do that, I get the window on my xserver screen, but when I 
hit the play button I get an error message saying that there may be
a hardware problem, and I get  segmentation fault.

The reason I am trying to do this is because I have my monitor and 
kbd connected to an NT box, and I have my linux machine lying next
to it. I have my headphones connected to the Linux box's sound card.

Now all I have to do is start xmms and select the song and play it.
So instead of switching the monitor / mouse to do that, I thought
of telnetinng into my linux box and running xmms with the DISPLAy var
set to my NT box which runs an X server.

Thanks
Shahed.
