I'd do a "ps ax" and look for any sound-looking processes running them (old xmms, artsd, etc) and kill them. Or look for a sound daemon that should be running but that's not (artsd, etc).Hi everybody, Three days ago I had a working xmms installation, last night i wanted to listen to some music mp3's on a cd and poof no sound, no error message pop-ups (is there a log I can check?), nothing. the song i selected went into the playlist but after that nothing happened. This is odd because i haven't used the system since the last time i was playing cd's three days ago.
system info - partial woody P100 32Mb RAM tdfx video 16Mb RAM
its cool to cc: me directly Any help or pointers will be greatly appreciated. tia, mw
You might try exiting out of X and killing any X-related processes (kdm, gdm, xprint, artsd, xinit, etc) if there are still any running, and then restarting X and trying xmms again.
You might try a console-based mp3 player, or another X-based one; you might want to try it as a different user.
