My bad. The application itself hangs. I press ctrl-c in the shell that I launched it from to kill it. In the case of MPlayer. It then pops up the error: MPlayer interrupted by signal 2 in module: ao2_init My guess is that MPlayer has blocked waiting for alsa to do something. XMMS just quits without saying anything. > most likely the hang-up has nothing to do with the error above, > unless the hang-up happens by accessing the mixer. > can you use the mixer before playing something? Just tried this. Alsamixer and KMix (which uses OSS) both detect the right things and work fine. Another small, possible buglet I have found. Despite following the website and doing... ./configure --with-cards=intel8x0 --with-sequencer=yes ...to configure the thing, the following additional modules get installed: /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/sound/isa/gus/snd-gus-synth.o /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/sound/isa/sb/snd-emu8000-synth.o /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/sound/pci/emu10k1/snd-emu10k1-synth.o /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/sound/pci/trident/snd-trident-synth.o /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/sound/synth/emux/snd-emux-synth.o There may be others but these ones complain of unresolved symbols when I run update-modules. I have tried just deleting them, which gets rid of that error but makes no difference to this problem. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
