I've set it running now on my 1.6GHz laptop. For some reason I haven't got
gkrellm showing the numerical value, but it looks as though it is taking
about 40% cpu.

I asked that question. There is no soundtrack, it is purely a screen-capture.
I can only assume that aRts tries to start as default with any mm. file. If
I just click on the file I get a message that aRts can't start - I think
that's what it said - but if I 'Open with' Media Player it plays.
