When getting something abnormal like this (XMMS ought to be able to do
XMMS), the first thing I'd try would be run it in a console. Does it
give any signifigant output? Next, do a quick recompile with more
conservative options. Try -O2 instead of -O3, take out the "fast" math,
and all that fun s
I can play a audio CD with xmms, but I can't play a .wav file on disk.
When I try, xmms freezes (doesn't react to mouse, even the preferences
window freezes when it's open). I have to "killall xmms"...
Any idea? TIA.
