(Also, is there a way of getting this windows-player-clone to work with links?) Here is what's happening: I have everything installed; checking "about plugings:" tells me that everything is there. But when I try to listen to anything windows, the stream seems to load, but there is nosound. There are no controls. A right-mouse click brings up a small window. "play" is not checked and clicking on any of the options does no good. If I click on the full-screen option, a small window (entirely black) is displayed. I am using ctwm, not gnome or anything with gnome hooks. Do I have to use gnome or kde to get the mplayer suite to work? I've poked around and don't see anything very helpful on this port. Any mplayer wizards out there??? gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
