Installing the XMMS plugin is the first step. There are two ways to get XMMS to work...

2) From "CTRL-C" or "Play AudioCD" In XMMS "CTRL-C" or (or select "Play AudioCD" from the menu) Click on right-pointing triangle (2nd from the left along the bottom) Menu opens up. It's already at /dev and the selection "cdrom" Click on "Play". Nothing happens, but don't worry... Click on right-pointing triangle (2nd from the left along the bottom) ...and it finally plays. Somewhat convoluted, if you ask me.
Strange, when I play Ctrl+C my XMMS reads the CD, fetches all the titles and starts playing the first track, all on its own . . . I use the CD Audio Player 1.2.10 [libcdaudio.so] module. The only thing that annoys me on a laptop of mine (Compaq Evo N600c) is that there is NO sound, until I either: 1. Press the sound +/- buttons on the front of the laptop (they increase/decrease the Master setting of alsamixer) 2. Launch alsamixer and change (up or down) the sound setting of Master or PCM. The same annoying 'feature' happens with the console bell - as it happens I want to have bell sounding on the console. Has anyone seen this mute-until-you-change-volume-setting before? -- Regards, Mick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
