Well before blaming permissions have you checked your disk space? Although I am 95% sure that this isn't the problem, I'd double check just to be sure. Check each partition individually using the du command (du -sh /dir) If that isn't it, try another media player. See if you get the same error. Of course, I doubt this one too, but it's the first thing you should check when something stops working. If not, I'd check the ~/.xfmedia folder (or file, if there even is one). If there isn't I'd touch it and chmod it to ug+rw, and then see if the problem persists. I've never used Xfmedia before, and it didn't save a configuration file for me when I loaded it up. Is the problem only occurring with Xfmedia, or with Xfce in general? - -- <o) Debian GNU/Linux - Free as in Freedom /\\ http://digital-haze.net/~pobega/ _\_V Window Maker user, Debian enthusiast -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGGROo/o7Q/FCvPe0RAptLAJ9owMGOX8TVO09e54djfic1D46M5QCgkRRO pP7UDVVB6b+hlPFTr1ZrGjM= =tJTT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
