Are you *sure* you do not have another FvwmEvent running? That would explain everything. If you can't figure it out alone, strip down your sonfig file as much as possible so that it still happens and post it to the list. > You say ``virtually the same code.'' Do FvwmEvent and FvwmAudio parse > the Cmd argument in exactly the same way? They parse it in the same way, but in audio mode the Cmd is run as in a shell and in FvwmEvent mode it is sent to fvwm. That is why you nee to use Exec in front of the command line. But otherwise it is the same. > I ask this because the error > messages I'd get in my ~/.xsession-errors file seemed to indicate that > esd was getting more requests than it could handle at once (although > there's usually no problem with normal multiple sounds, e.g., if I > iconify a window while xmms is playing through its esd output plugin). > I apologize if those were a stupid question and observation; I'm not a > programmer yet. As I use to say: there are no stupid questions, only stupid answers. :-) Bye Dominik ^_^ ^_^ -- Dominik Vogt, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
