Hi everybody, seems I've gone a little bit further in the understanding of my audio problem (totem not playing audio, while vlc and xmms seem to work fine). Running totem from console I get: (totem:440): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib (totem:440): Gdk-WARNING **: can not set locale modifiers (totem:440): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed. audio_oss_out: switching the soundcard to 16 bits mode failed audio_esd_out: connecting to esd server... audio_esd_out: can't connect to <default> ESD server: No such file or directory load_plugins: audio output auto-probing didn't find any usable audio driver.
Anyone met the problem before? As I told before xmms works fine (apparently with audio_oss), even if I'm still experiencing the awful "no-cdaudio" problem (even if I set all the right permissions for /dev/dsp, /dev/mixer, etc and installed xmms-cdread. I'm using Debian testing/unstable with kernel 2.4.18-newpmac (which I suppose I will have to upgrade to Benh to get 3d acceleration working).
