Hi guys, I am trying to get xmms2 working on my server as I want to tie it into Icecast2 in order to stream music to my network. I'm having major problems with getting xmms2 to work though! This is output from /var/log/messages: Jan 3 20:16:55 test kernel: pid 1218 (xmms2-mdns-avahi), uid 500: exited on signal 6 (core dumped) If I try to start it I get issues with the output plugin as it doesn't seem to like wave: $ xmms2d INFO: ../src/xmms/log.c:49: Initialized logging system :) 20:24:47 INFO: ../src/xmms/ipc.c:795: IPC listening on 'tcp://192.168.1.100:9090'. 20:24:47 INFO: ../src/xmms/main.c:517: Using output plugin: wave 20:24:47 ERROR: ../src/xmms/main.c:521: Baaaaad output plugin, try to change theoutput.plugin config variable to something usefull 20:24:47 ERROR: ../src/xmms/output.c:981: initalized output without a plugin, please fix! Starting XMMS2 phone home agent... Starting XMMS2 mDNS Agent... Failed to create Avahi client: Daemon not running Assertion failed: (client), function avahi_client_free, file client.c, line 613. I am sure that xmms2 will start without the Avahi client though as I have no plans to install that since I am using static IP addressing which means I won't need Avahi...... (would it be better to recompile or can I leave like this??) Anyway if anyone can help me with resolving these errors I would be so grateful! In addition I need to create a startup script for xmms2-launcher so that I can run the app as a daemon in the background only I am not very familiar with BSD or startup scripts in general so if anyone can help that would be cool too! Incase it helps: $ uname -a FreeBSD test.optiplex-networks.com 8.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE #0: Sat Nov 21 15:48:17 UTC 2009 root@almeida.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 Many thanks and best regards to all!! :-) P.s. many of you saw my initial email which I posted pre building this server. I actually have come to really quite like BSD as it doesn't take any power from the system at all or even use much HD space either. I mean ports needs about 1GB but I seem to do get round things clogging with make install clean. BTW thanks to all who helped out on that! --Kaya
