At some point of time you've installed it yourself. It's an old piece of software with quite a number of problem reports in Fedora bugzilla. Some of these have been closed incorrectly when some versions of Fedora reached EOL. If I recall correctly, the XMMS desktop menu entry is wrong, and therefore it doesn't accept file/path arguments passed to it. Without the help of a virtual file-system for Audio CDs, XMMS cannot play the WAV PCM tracks found on an Audio CD. Unless you read its documentation to learn how to point it to an audio cd (and the xmms-cdread plugin for digital Audio CD input is orphaned again, I think). -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
