I'm running the ltest KDE2.1 with potato. Lately (I can't remember after which update) whenever I try to play a file accosiated with kde media player (noatun) my cpu goes straight to 100% and nothing else happens. I've tried playing files from the terminal to see if anything useful ... I get this:
noatun ./blah.mpg ** Warning ** unix_connect: can't connect to server (unix:/tmp/mcop-tpk/pimp_winkinc_com-0220-3ab69d5d) Launched ok, pid = 1214 ** Warning ** unix_connect: can't connect to server (unix:/tmp/mcop-tpk/pimp_winkinc_com-0220-3ab69d5d) I am running artsd, ps ax gives me this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ps ax | grep art 1214 ? R 0:28 artsd -F 5 -S 4096 -d -b 16 "ls -l /tmp mcop-tpk/" gives me this (excuse the wrapping): total 6 -rw------- 1 tpk tpk 206 Mar 19 19:37 Arts_AudioManager -rw------- 1 tpk tpk 206 Mar 19 19:37 Arts_MidiManager -rw------- 1 tpk tpk 206 Mar 19 19:37 Arts_PlayObjectFactory -rw------- 1 tpk tpk 206 Mar 19 19:37 Arts_SimpleSoundServer -rw------- 1 tpk tpk 206 Mar 19 19:37 Arts_SoundServer srwxr-xr-x 1 tpk tpk 0 Mar 19 17:59 pimp_winkinc_com-0220-3ab69d5d srwxr-xr-x 1 tpk tpk 0 Mar 19 19:37 pimp_winkinc_com-04be-3ab6b461 -rw------- 1 tpk tpk 32 Mar 19 17:59 secret-cookie is anyone else having problems? All I can do at this point is "killall -9 artsd". At some point everything was working fine .... -- Tim Kelley [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.iww.org/
