I am using media-sound/xmms-1.2.7-r19. I open the playlist, click the button to add a file and hold for add directory. I navigate to the directory and click on it to load. Xmms immediately segfaults. This directory has many sub-directories and adding a sub-directory by itself works fine. Main directory has >=500 directories and >=1000 files, each sub-directory has 20-50 files. I had tried toggling titles from on load to display and it makes no difference, switching all plugins on/off and switching sound output plugins has no effect. The directory is mounted from a vfat (fat32) partition, if that helps any. Am currently emerging glibc 2.3.2 and seeing if that makes a difference. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load directory of many files. 2. Get the friendly message "Segmentation fault." 3. Cry. Actual Results: Xmms crashed and much crying occured. Expected Results: Files load into playlist for music listening happiness.

In my case, xmms doesn't crash but it will no longer load my directory tree at all. My directory tree consists of over 5000 songs (all of which I ripped myself from my own CD collection) spread across ~300 directories. Prior ebuilds of xmms-1.2.7 did not have this problem. I tried to go back to an earlier ebuild, but all earlier ebuilds are now gone from portage. =========================================================== dragon etc # emerge info Portage 2.0.47-r10 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.2, glibc-2.3.2-r0) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.20 i686 AMD Athlon(TM) XP1500+ GENTOO_MIRRORS=" ftp://csociety-ftp.ecn.purdue.edu/pub/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu/pub/gentoo http://212.219.56.162/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/ http://194.83.57.2/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/ http://194.83.57.3/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/3.1/share/config /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" USE="x86 oss 3dnow apm avi crypt cups encode gif jpeg gnome libg++ mikmod mmx mpeg ncurses nls pdflib png quicktime spell truetype xml2 xmms xv zlib gtkhtml alsa gdbm berkdb slang readline arts tetex bonobo svga ggi tcltk java guile mysql X sdl gpm tcpd pam libwww ssl perl python esd imlib oggvorbis gtk qt kde motif opengl mozilla cdr" COMPILER="gcc3" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-mcpu=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe" CXXFLAGS="-mcpu=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe" ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" MAKEOPTS="-j2" AUTOCLEAN="yes" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" FEATURES="sandbox ccache"
FWIW - I did a shift-L (play directory) rather than opening a 'load files' dialog box. That worked fine with no problem. xmms is now playing my tunes correctly. :-)
