Hi Femme;
I've seen this before with a friend's Mandrake 9.0/Win 98 SE/Win XP triple
boot machine. All the music files (MP3s) were in a shared FAT32 partition. No
permissions, ya know? I linked it in /home, set the permissions on the link,
and played the music with XMMS. He ain't complaining so it must still be
working. <g>
BTW, if you have top open already as root you don't need to open another
terminal to kill a hung/runaway process. Just hit the 'k' key and it'll ask
you what PID you want dead. It'll confirm the number, then just hit enter.
Done.
Regards;
