I recently upgraded my system from 4.8-STABLE to 5.1-RELEASE. I haven't had any problems except with XMMS. Randomly XMMS will fail after it finishes playing a song and before it has started the next - the error dialog says "Couldn't open audio" in the title bar. The message that shows up on the console is:
** WARNING **: oss_open(): Failed to open audio device (/dev/dsp): Operation not supported by device If I repeatedly hit the play button it will eventually play the next song. Sometimes it will play 4 or 5 songs consecutively without a problem, and other times the problem arises after each song. I have tried deinstalling XMMS and then recompiling, but still nothing. I have also tried `fstat | grep dsp', but nothing appears to be using the /dev/dsp. Does anyone have any ideas what might be wrong? Thanks, Nathan -- gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys D8527E49
