You need the mp3 plugin for xmms. You can get it from freshrpms.net. Make sure you download the correct file for your distrobution.

By the way, Red Hat 8.0 is quite old (more than five years). If your computer will run it, a newer distrobution (like Fedora) will give you much better service.

Hope this helps,

Bob
