I remember having all sorts of threads problems with the various threads packages I had. BTW: Has anyone managed to get xine to play a DVD or AVI recently? The latest port seems to be annoyingly broken for me. Is there some magic you have to do to get it working right? [Warning Built up Rant approaching, skipping this part is recommended] Damn you MPAA! Why did you have to make it so difficult for me to play a simple DVD under FreeBSD? Were it not for your strongarm tactics I'm positive that the DVD players under FreeBSD and Linux would blow the Windows players out of the water, which really wouldn't be all that hard since pretty much all of the Windows players are terrible.
