PO,

Sound works fine on my iBook. I had the same problem with xmms quiting
with a segmentation fault. I used xine until I d/led and recompiled xmms
1.2.10. Now xmms works fine. Other than that things seem to work fine.
Is the sound problem just that you can't get XMMS to start? Or do you
get no sound at all, except for the Soundcard Detection GUI?
