For what it's worth, <killall xmms> did nothing, and xmms remained in the Panel. Thinking that repeating this as root might be help, I did so, and now the Panel shows "XMMS[2]", i.e. there are two copies of xmms running, I can't see either of them, and neither of them is functional.
In all these years (I have been building and operating computers since before 1950) I have never seen "Rmouse" as a designation for a button. It looks for all the world like the name of a utility. There is a value to uniformity in terminology. It's called "communication".
Hummm, it's as good as "the Panel" as descriptions go. But I guess it only works one way, the eye of the viewer. But then again, it was you that wanted help and it is *your* responsibility to make your situation known, if you really want help. And then there was the comment: <quote> And then there is always the possibility of asking knowledgeable people on an appropriate forum, who may have experienced the same problem of a deadish xmms themselves and be willing to share. That was my hope, as a matter of fact. I envy people that have the time to institute an open-ended research program for each and every problem. I doubt that I am the only one that doesn't. </quote> You have spent more time bantering in this forum than a quick search for your own answers would have taken. :^) And, your words, you have been building and operating computers since before 1950. That really sounds like a room full of diodes and a lot of heat. But I suspect that you have taken some liberty with dates or you are *really* old. And be careful here because I am somewhat old with some history. -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
