Interesting. There must be something either in the modules.conf
configuration (I used alsaconf) or a difference in audio HW that causes
this. Perhaps there is some lingering issue in the alsa/oss/esd
emulation layers that is still problematic.

Sorry Alexandre, I was not clear. That was a problem before installing
alsa, when I used either OSS or ESD in xmms. I am now using the alsa
output plugin in xmms since installing alsa.

Yep. I participate in another set of lists for a stats/math application
called R. Any time someone sends some code in an e-mail looking for
assistance where I can be of help, I have to copy the code and then
reformat it in xemacs, since it comes over as one long line. I can live
without the sound, but I can't tell you how much time I have lost on the
C&P issue.

I am pretty sure that it has been fixed in Evo's CVS, so I am not sure
why a fix has not yet been incorporated into an update for FC, unless
there are some dependency issues that have not been resolved.

Marc
