TIA Paul Howdy propably you simply don't have permission to use audio :-) Go to System-Configuration-Other-UsersAdministration(not sure of exact names, i have Polish version), login as a root, then you should select your user, press Edit button and in last page named Groups find and click on audio checkbox. Confirm your change with OK, and you have done. :-) Greetings Rafa Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com

TIA Paul Have you tried resetting it to the arts output plugin? or one of the others say alsa plugin if that is what you are running. Left click on the + sign in the upper left corner of the x multimedia system box and then choose prefernces. Look for the long bar that says Alsa or OSS or ArTs and change it by clicking on it.

TIA Paul If you right-click on the xmms console, go Options -Preferences and then see the first tab, Audio I/O Plugins. At the bottom of the box, see Output Plugin. Try changing it. cheers Duncan Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com
