Hi,
When I tried to play mp3s using xmms, it gives the following error in the 
console that runs it:
arts_init error: can't connect to aRts soundserver

I know aRts has something to do with KDE. I used to use KDE, but then I 
switched to FVWM. The question is, why does xmms need aRts soundserver?

I tried to run artsd first, and then xmms is able to play songs. But at some 
point, the sound will get really distorted. 

plaympeg runs fine so I don't think this is a soundcard problem.

I have another another workstation that has run FVWM for a long time, and the 
xmms there works fine without aRtsd running. Could someone help with this?

Thanks in advance for any response.
Reuben D. Budiardja
