Hi folks. I've installed xmms-mpg123-1.2.7-21 (RH9 but supposed to work with FC1) to be able to play MP3 files but it didn't work properly. I did a yum update to bring xmms and xmms-skins up to the latest versions but stil the same. I uninstalled all of the xmms stull and downloaded the latest (same version as yum) direct from xmms.org which already had mp3 built in, but still the same. What happens is, I select a directory containing mp3 files and tel it to play. Once it starts playing t flies through all of the files taking about 2 per file, and all I get out of the speakers is a very quiet squeal. Anyone got any ideas. Th machine is dual boot XP and the files play fine under XP. All other audio works under Linux. The kit is: Brand new P4 3G, 1GB RAM, ASUS P4P800+ with onboard audio, FC1 + full yum update -- Gary Stainburn This email does not contain private or confidential material as it may be snooped on by interested government parties for unknown and undisclosed purposes - Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act, 2000
