Hello, I've just installed Redhat 8.0, and based on information that I got from this mailing list, I know that RH 8.0 does not have mpeg movie player. So installed mplayer (was also suggested here). But when I try play movie with mplayer, it can not play sound because the sound device is busy. When I check with "/sbin/fuser /dev/dsp" I found out that 'artsd' is using the sound device. Of course,- I thought- since I am using KDE.
So, how do I get around that? How can I play mplayer while using KDE as the desktop? I tried mplayer -ao artsd:/dev/dsp, but it does not work (give fatal error). Sorry if this is off topic, but since mplayer was suggested here, I thought someone must have run to this same problem. Thanks for any help/info. Reuben D.
