choosing double size crashes/hangs xmms in Sid

2006-05-04 Thread H.S.
Hi, If I choose Preferences->Double Size gui from xmms, the xmms windows goes black and I have to kill the xmms process to get xmms working again. And this happens no matter which skin I choose. Is somebody else experiencing this as well? The system is Debian Sid running on 2.6.16-1-686 kernel.
