I know I'm being a heathen and all using XMMS (my use of media player depends on my mood), but I've noticed that XMMS crashes a lot on SuSE 7.3 using the aRts plugin, so I decided to track it down. I ran it with gdb and sure enough after a few tracks it crashed. Here's a trimmed version of the output: [...] [New Thread 8201 (LWP 13879)] <-- it does this every time a new track starts Delayed SIGSTOP caught for LWP 13879. LWP 13879 exited. LWP 13189 exited.

[Switching to Thread 13326 (LWP 28318)] 0x40bd792a in Arts::GlobalComm_base::_create () from /opt/kde2//lib/libmcop.so.0 (gdb) So, there's the bug. I'm guessing this is a problem with the plugin, so I'm CCing the author, but since I figured that there's a chance that this is an aRts problem that I'd at least check with you fine folk. Oh, and even though I'm not running KDE3 right now, I've gotten the same behavior when I am. -Scott _______________________________________________ kde-multimedia mailing list kde-multimedia@mail.kde.org http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-multimedia
