Greg:

I've downloaded the Gnome 1.2 packages, and built the dependencies from 
pkgsrc. It'd take too long to build Gnome on this SS2... it's only got the 
40Mhz processor, and 32 Megs of RAM.

What it does is test a bunch of sampling rates, both stereo and mono, gives 
the same error I got with mpg123 without the -r 8000 argument, then it 
shuts down X. I never actually get past the "checkerboard" X background 
with the X mouse cursor. then the "console" scroll with the audio test 
text, then it shuts down the X server.

I don't get any kernel or X panics, etc, it just calls it a fatal error, 
and shuts down X.

Any clues? I'm lost.

Another odd thing... mpg123 -r 8000 works.. but only over the internal 
speaker. I can't get the external audio i/o dongle-thingy to work. Now, 
this is probably something I've overlooked there, or there's no support, 
but I'd also like to get this to work.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
