You may try to trace the problem. 1) Start xmms from a terminal. If there is an error message, please post it here. 1.a) Often it is a workarround to move the users .xmms directory to an other place or delete it. For this open a terminal. Do a: ls -ld .xmms You shold see the .xmms directore listed. move the directory to an other place by typing: mv .xmms .backup.xmms Above .backup.xmms is the new place for the old .xmms directory. You may use another name than .backup.xmms if you like. Start xmms again. If it works, Fine :) If not, let's have a deeper look... 2) There is a programm caled srtace which is used to do a very intense tracing of all programm (inter)actions. For this start xmms in a terminal by typing: strace /usr/bin/xmms You will see a lot of messagess scrolling down the screen. Don't worry, in most cases only the last 20 to 30 lines are of interest in a case than yours. You may also tell strace to write it's mesae output to a text file. For this type: strace -o xmms.strace /usr/bin/xmms Please post the last 20 - 30 lines of this this messages here. (Not the whole *strace file! Such files may be Mbytes in size. You don't make friends by posting such big files to a mailing list. ;-) rgards, thomas -- ubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users"> https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div> -- ******************************************************** Yours Sincerely, Mehdi Hassanpour ---------------------------------------------------------------------- /* Of one Essence is the human race, Thusly has Creation put the Base; One Limb impacted is sufficient, For all Others to feel the Mace. ~Saadi (persian poet) -1258 */ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- <a href="http://ImPersian.com">http://ImPersian.com</a> | <a href="http://Hezardastan.org">http://Hezardastan.org</a> ********************************************************
