Also ran xmms from an xterm, no errors or verbose output of any kind, all seemed smooth. I have found stacks of esound dirs on my setup, not sure which one I should be looking at, couldn't see one attached to xmms, found and opened the artsd folder I could find, but it was some serious stuff, way over my head, couldn't read it.Been bopping to hissssssss for a day now,LOL, need some new sounds, any other ideas ?
