On this note, does anyone know anything about UPS? Can they be
configured to send signals to the PC saying, 'hey, i'm not recieving
power anymore, you need to shut down now..'.
I can't see how UPS could be any good if this isn't a standard feature..

Hi all,
There is a new runtime version available and the sooner we can test it
out the sooner we can go ahead and release 1.3.2-pre5. :)

It's a Freevo issue, but one that has been fixed in CVS, look for the

it is likely X's console blanking
in your ~/.xinitrc or /etc/X11/Sessions/whatever or ~/.xsession file,
put the following line in

that will turn off screen blanking.

Sorry, it might be in /tmp/freevo/ instead... but the easy way to tell
is to run freevo from the command-line, (./freevo) and it should print
where it's logging to.

hmm, I would prefer that sort of plugin. Actually, I would prefer just
having mplayer working. Should I run a strace on mplayer to see why it
is crashing, perhaps? I will also try my .oggs to see if they have
problems as well.

That would be it. Freevo calls mplayer, mplayer segfaults and returns
control to Freevo; the problem is probably confined to mplayer.
