[newbie] xmms problem
when I run xmms like: [EMAIL PROTECTED] jason]$ soundwrapper xmms Segmentation fault You've probably found a bug in XMMS, please visit http://bugs.xmms.org and fill out a bug report. Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x11c2)! As you can see there is a problem. If I just run xmms as is, no problem. Known problem? Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] xmms problem
I forgot to say that xmms comes up. I load an mp3, and then it crashes. The mp3 is fine. If I run just xmms instead of using soundwrapper my mp3 play fine in xmms. I can just run xmms as is. --- Dan Gordon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Tuesday 10 August 2004 11:07 am, JASON JESSO wrote: when I run xmms like: [EMAIL PROTECTED] jason]$ soundwrapper xmms Segmentation fault You've probably found a bug in XMMS, please visit http://bugs.xmms.org and fill out a bug report.

[newbie] installing a screensaver in KDE
Got my hands on the matrix screensaver. I put KMatrix.desktop in /usr/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers. Control center does not pick it up until I create the link in /usr/share/applnk-mdk-simplified/.hidden/ScreenSavers In works than, but later on (few days later the link dissappears). All those links there get recreated. By what process? How do I make this permanant? I keep having to recreate this link manually. Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] X server crash
I have attached the XF86Config-4 file. My video chip is on-board and has 2 MB memory. The strange thing is that these setting are the settings I had 2 versions of Mandrake ago.

[newbie] xsreensaver
Can someone tell me why the The Matrix screensaver is not included with the xscreensaver rpm from Mandrake? All I see is the man page? Also most of the screensavers in this package don't show up in the control panel. I am currently using LM8.0, but I recall back in 7.x the screensavers were there in the KDE control panel including the matrix. I wonder what happened? Jason

Has anybody got a joystick to work in Linux Mandrake 8.0? Just an analog stick. In previous versions I got my joystick to work by inserting joystick in /etc/modules. That doesn't work with lm8.
