We just had a user in irc: 21:04:19 < fly_80> hello 21:04:47 < fly_80> i installed xine but when i run it , it crashes with : "can't create mcop directory" 21:05:03 < fly_80> anybody can help me ? 21:07:36 < siretart> fly_80: aah, please try to call xine like this: 'xine -A alsa' 21:07:45 < siretart> fly_80: does this still happen? 21:07:49 < fly_80> uhm, i try 21:07:56 < _ds> Hm. A quick search shows that it's a KDE problem.. 21:08:07 < fly_80> it crashes 21:08:15 < fly_80> but without error 21:08:26 < fly_80> i'm not running KDE 21:08:38 < fly_80> i'm on GNOME 21:08:52 < Flameeyes> it's trying to use arts most likely 21:09:03 < _ds> Solution is, apparently, to "mkdir ~/.kde/socket-`hostname`" (substitute hostname accordingly) 21:11:21 < _ds> So... fly_80, does that mkdir solve the problem? 21:13:00 < fly_80> ok i try 21:13:28 < fly_80> yes -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
