[gentoo-dev] xmms and eq-xmms issues

[ian douglas]

Hi folks,

I emerge xmms about a week ago, and it's worked great once I got the audio
working on my laptop.

Yesterday I tried to emerge the eq-xmms plugin, and it kept failing because it
didn't know where to find xmms's "Effect" directory. I had to manually untar,
./configure with a --libdir switch, and install it, but then any time I tried
to use the new equalizer plugin, take my time to adjust 25 channels, listen to
a few tunes then exit xmms, something in the config file got corrupted because
xmms would segfault trying to start up after that; deleting the
/home/user/.xmms/config file was the only thing that helped.
