I am using the OSS plugin. It says it cant contact my soundcard or it is busy. When I use mpg321 I can play an mp3 fine in the console. It doesn't play at all in XMMS. KDE just gives me an error sound and it gives me that error in a box

Check your output plugin in XMMS. (Options | Preferences | Audio I/O Plugins | Output Plugin). You probably want the OSS output module. What is the error message xmms gives you? When does it happen? Is it able to load a song? Does it give an error when trying to play the song? Does it look like it's playing fine but you don't hear anything? You'll get better help quicker if you provide these details when you ask a question. Instead of just saying "it doesn't work", you should say exactly what you tried, what you were expecting, and what you observed. good times, Vineet -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
