Folks,

I just barely upgraded to FC5 and Dapper on two different systems and I have
to say that I still remain very disappointed in Linux's sound standards. How
is it that every time we dist upgrade we have to go through this again and
again? Not that anyone here can fix that, I just had to get my rant out on
the table... (Stuff like this would require freedesktop.org or some
standards body. Though, who knows? The RPM standard didn't fly, did it? :D)

Amarok rocks and I can't imagine the traversal of the minefields of Linux
soundsystems that the developers have to go through.... crazy. Anyway, back
to the real question.

I've got this installed:

[jrp@slim .xine]$ rpm -qa amarok* xine*
amarok-extras-nonfree-1.4.3-1.lvn5
amarok-1.4.3-3.fc5
xine-lib-1.1.2-4.lvn5

I'm using the Xine Engine with Auto detect for the output. Local mp3 playing
and iPod stuff works great (except for the weird mounting issues .. but,
that's bearable). However, whenever I play mp3 streams everything goes south
real quick. I either get:

=======================
Error Loading Media
No suitable input plugin. This often means that the url's protocol is not
supported. Network failures are other possible causes.
=======================

or something like:

=======================
Error Loading Media
No suitable demux plugin.
=======================

and incessant hangs left and right. I've produced a crash as well randomly
clicking on Streams. So it either is some thread/pipe issue or some cleanup
problem.

The only two plugins I have are Helix and Xine. I don't have mp3 support in
Helix so I'm sticking with Xine.

If any of you have any hints, tips, links, or whatever, I'd love to get this
resolved. I'll look into strace/ltrace/gdb and see if I can extract anything
meaningful...

thanks,

Subject: Re: [kde-redhat-users] cannot yum update fc4
Message: 2

Rex,

I think I am getting closer to the problem.  

>From here, yum does not work, so I have to maintain my
own copy repository, and to do that I use rsync.  

Via rsync, I have not found, and I cannot get, all the
KDE files for Fedora 4 that I find here:

http://apt.kde-redhat.org/apt/fedora/core/4/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/

Compare:

rsync
rsync://apt.kde-redhat.org/apt/fedora/fedora/4/i386/stable/RPMS/

(If it splits onto two lines, the command begins with
rsync, then space, then rsync:// etc.)

If you try this:

rsync rsync://apt.kde-redhat.org/apt/fedora/

The core directory does not appear on the listing --
that is why I stepped down into the fedora directory
under fedora. 

The end result is that via rsync, I am not getting
most of the KDE files for Fedora 4.  For example, I do
not get kdebase, kdenetwork, or kdemultimedia.  In my
repository, yum only finds the plain old Fedora
versions of kdebase, kdenetwork, and  kdemultimedia.  

Maybe I have the rsync directory wrong, but I have not
been able to find the right one.  

How can I get all the files via rsync?  

Thanks,

Rick

wrong url.  That's our local, but not-be-used-externally fc4 os/updates 
mirror. (:  Used primarily for our local mockbuilds.

again, wrong url.

As it should, for fc4 what you probably *really* want is:
rsync rsync://apt.kde-redhat.org/apt/kde-redhat/fedora/4/

Then it's *your* job to find a usable fc4 os/updates repo.
