I have had random crashes with both xmms and beep-media-player for months... now I see that the cause is the only plug-in I use: xmms-infopipe (bmp-infopipe is just a patched version). I am able to play music for days with no crashes at all withouth it. ################################ These are which versions I used: media-plugins/xmms-infopipe-1.3 media-plugins/bmp-infopipe-1.3 media-sound/xmms-1.2.10-r15 media-sound/beep-media-player-0.9.7-r6 -------------------------------- And this is the output msg on a terminal when they fail: bmp) lavish@darkstar ~ $ beep-media-player& Received SIGSEGV This could be a bug in BMP. If you don't know why this happened, send a mail to us at beepmp-devel@lists.sourceforge.net xmms) lavish@darkstar ~ $ xmms& [1] 24050 lavish@darkstar ~ $ Message: device: default Segmentation fault You've probably found a bug in XMMS, please visit http://bugs.xmms.org and fill out a bug report.
