Description of problem: I recently upgraded from FC5 to FC6. When I try to load xmms I get the following error. >xmms XS[src/xmms-sid.c:xs_init:216]: xs_init() XS[src/xs_config.c:xs_init_configuration:164]: initializing configuration ...

Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run xmms 2. ??? 3. Profit (smiles) Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: Normally I also have some additional modules for aac and mp3 installed from freshrpms, but removed them in the off chance they were causing problems.
xmms is in Fedora Extras, moving/reassigning. Anyway, I tried to reproduce and installed all the plugins you listed, but it starts up just fine here on FC6 x86_64. Just a hunch, could you try the workaround from bug 213172 comment 2 and see if it has any effect?
Seems this is a duplicate of bug 213172. The suggested workaround works. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 213172 ***
Russell: without the workaround, can user root start xmms successfully {this is what I see} ?
I believe what you are asking is whether it loads when doublesize is not enabled. I can remove (or otherwise move out of the way) the ~/.xmms directory and then it will load. As soon as I try to move to doublesize it screws up.
Well, I wasn't, but you answered in a way. I found that as root xmms loads and runs OK, and only bombs once doublesize is enabled. As normal user I only got the error messages you listed above. But I see what you mean: in fact that was a user profile from fc5 (and before) that has doublesize=true in the config. So my issue is in fact identical, thanks Russell.
