Same as bug 166469?
Yep, the same, known upstream bug: http://bugs.xmms.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1907 Workaround: In a shell before starting xmms, do: export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 To make this permanent in the menu entry, change the Exec= line in /usr/share/applications/redhat-audio-player.desktop to: Exec=env XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 xmms -e %F ...or of course, a wrapper script could be created for launching xmms, perhaps moving the original executable to /usr/libexec/xmms and calling that from the wrapper in /usr/bin.
Setting XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 before starting xmms works. Thank You.
