Hi Reuben, Thanks for experimenting. If I use OSS directly, I get some latency (fraction of a second) but nothing like through Artsd (4+ seconds). When you say you tried it from the console, you still had X running, right? You ran Xmms. As you thought, I _am_ using KDE. But even if it works from, say, Blackbox, I'm not sure what I'd do long-term. I'll give it a try out of interest. -- Greg Bell -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
