Out of curiousity, what happens if you move your .xmms dir out of the way?

Do you have any not-shipped-with-xmms plugins installed?
Comment 2 Need Real Name 2002-10-01 04:39:41 UTC 
Same problem here. Clean install, user had no .xmms directory. No plugins/any
other external programs installed.

Just for the record, XMMS worked for me under 8.0. 
 
Perhaps one of the users with the problem would be willing to rebuild XMMS 
from SRPM w/ debugging? I can't seem to get anybody in #redhat on freenode to 
do that and I don't have the problem to replicate. 
 
Just a thought. -Ali
Comment 5 Need Real Name 2002-10-04 08:10:04 UTC 
Hi!

I've got the same segmentation fault as you do.

My work around:

- Install arts-1.0.3-1 on RH8.0 CD 2
- Install xmms-mpe123 rpm at www.xmms.org
- Disable the MPEG Layer Placeholder Plugin on XMMS

This should do the work.

Cheers,

Comment 6 Bill Nottingham 2002-10-04 16:59:40 UTC 
Only the step 1 you mentioned is actually necessary.
Comment 7 Paul Berger 2002-10-12 03:14:54 UTC 
I'm having the same issue here with a fresh install of RH 8.0 but installing
arts-1.0.3-1 appears to fix the segfault issue.  Bad dependency in xmms rpm?
