Getting the Most Out of XMMS

[Tony]

On the issue of XMMS, I have experienced problems with the program 
(locking up?) when I try to change the skin.  This has occurred for me 
in both 3.0 and 3.0.1.  I have had to reboot in order to run XMMS again 
under the same user.  When I installed YDL I made sure to check the 
optional skins to also be installed.
