never mind. I answered my own question. If anyone else is interested here is what I found out. A couple of issues with the latest Redhat 8.0 release of XMMS: Can't add/play mp3s. Redhat decided to not ship any mp3 decoding software whatsoever in Redhat 8.0 (information), so you'll have a couple of options. go to http://www.xmms.org/ for mor info. Download the mpg123 plugin here http://staff.xmms.org/priv/redhat8/ Download a replacement RPM for XMMS http://www.gurulabs.com/downloads.html http://psyche.freshrpms.net/rpm.html?id=106 Users using freshrpms.net for apt-get can grab the package 'xmms-mp3' Compile and install XMMS from source. http://www.xmms.org/download.html -----Original Message----- From: Diego, Emil [mailto:ediego@exchange.sba.miami.edu] Sent: Tuesday, February 04, 2003 9:40 AM To: 'psyche-list@redhat.com' Subject: xmms and Redhat 8.0 Hi, I have run into a little problem with redhat 8.0 and xmms. I had my machine running redhat 7.3 and xmms. My sound card worked fineand I was able to play mp3's without any problem. I deciced to upgrade my machine to Redhat 8.0 and I did. It it the same machine as before but I cant get the mp3's to play. every time I try adding my mp3's to the playlist they dont get added, so I am unable to play them. Has anyone else experienced any problems with xmms on redhat 8.0?
