Man I installed xmms 1.2.8 over the orginal version that comes with RH9 in hopes of fixing the mp3 playback problem. Well, It plays MP3's suppa fast. I changed the output driver and tried to play a mp3 again but now it just locks up. I want to just completely remove the xmms package and start over but when I try to do so I get this annoying error "error: Failed dependencies: libxmms.so.1 is needed by (installed) kdeaddons-3.1-4" How can I remove xmms without this annoying message?

rpm -e --nodeps filename -or- man rpm taurus

ok i have the reverse problem i did the same install xmms 1.2.8 over the old one now it just plays mp3's in about 2 sec, but i managed to remove it and try again, what luck it didnt work it still plays mp3's at unaudiable speeds. any suggestions. I HATE THIS DISTRO! (jamd 0.0.6)

Thanks Taurus. Well I re-installed xmms 1.2.8 and yet again, it refuses to play mp3's. I then removed that and installed the orginal xmms version that came with redhat and then installed the mp3 patch, still, no mp3 playback. THis is beginning to get irritating. Any suggestions or advice on something I did wrong?

Well I have xmms 1.2.8 installed but now I am having the same problem as before. It is playing the mp3's at a rate of one minute per second. If I change the output driver, it will lock up. Joy. Any suggestions?

Hey, I fixed xmms. I removed xmms 1.2.8 and then re-installed the orginal 1.2.7 package that came with redhat 9. I then ran the redhat 9 update and updated ALL packages. (took a good 2 hours) Anyways, I installed the mp3 patch and then changed the output driver. Suddenly everything works again. Yay!
