Those both give me the error output.  Over the years of using mol, I
have never seen this or experienced this at all.  It worked last night
but this afternoon after doing an apt-get upgrade in debian testing I
get these errors.  Even a clean install of mol resulted in the same
thing, so I gather it could be of one of the files I upgraded that
conflicts with mol.  I provided the list of updates so if anyone had an
issue like this that can be tied to one of the updates I  would know the
issue.  

The computer just sits there with the cleaning up and hangs till I stop
mol.  

Can it be related to alsa as to I am also having issues with xmms not
being able to play music from the net?  Xmms after filling ups the
buffer can not play anything then freezes?  So I don't know if there is
a connecton here :(
