I have a k-6 300 with 128 MB of RAM, and a AWE 64 sound card using the device pcm driver. The Mp3s are on my local disk, and I have never used 3.x, I am new to freebsd. I have tried xmms, mp3blaster, mp3123, kmp3, x11amp and xamp. They all skipped terribly whenver I did anything in any other program, especially going to a new website in netscape. I can get kmp3 to stop skipping by setting its buffer settings to max, but as I said, it randomly crashes and won't start again without a reboot.
