Just installed an old live CD of Mandriva 2009.0 I created a while back, but getting no joy sound-wise out of xmame or mplayer. Youtube, and another game I tested worked out fine however. Running mplayer with an alsa output gives me silence, but no error message:
Code:
[stuart@localhost ~]$ mplayer -ao alsa /media/disk/Music/Yeah\ Yeah\ Yeahs/its_blitz/*
MPlayer SVN-1.rc2.23.r28791.2plf2009.1-4.3.2 (C) 2000-2009 MPlayer Team
mplayer: could not connect to socket
mplayer: No such file or directory
