xmms on my computer freezes temporarily when doing disk-intensive tasks,
e.g. examining the ID3-tags of a long playlist. It is not a serious
problem, it just annoys me that my OpenBSD installation apparently does
not perform as well as my friend's Debian GNU/Linux installation, which
does not suffer from the problem. It _is_ a matter of honor :)
Any help is appreciated, but my primary objective is to find out whether
I am the only person experiencing this problem.
everyone experiences it. if you'd been at eurobsdcon, you could have
watched me demo it in front of a crowd. :)
the two solutions are to prescroll the entire playlist (slowly, so
there are no gaps) or to switch to librthread (which is not done, but
worked for xmms before anything else). if you haven't heard of
librthread, then i don't think it'd be good to switch, but the problem
is being worked on.
