i've been working on my linux drive (redhat 9) the last few days, finally got my soundcard to work. installed flac, shorten, shntool, and flac plugin for xmms but i'm having some problems installing the xmms-shn plugin. just curious to see if anyone here has ever successfully installed the plugin. i can't seem to find much troubleshooting since it is kind of an obscure format.
also, i need to get a new hard drive since initially i had only installed it on an old 6gb drive. was wondering if anyone here has had any experience with installing linux to a SATA drive, and with which distro. thinking of switching to Slackware 10.1

I know this doesn't solve the problem, but you can circumvent by converting to FLAC!

rh9?
as root try
up2date xmms-shn
If that doesn't work try
d/l
wget http://dag.wieers.com/packages/xmms-shn/xmms-shn-2.4.0-1.0.rh9.dag.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh xmms-shn-2.4.0-1.0.rh9.dag.i386.rpm
Haven't used rh9 in a few months as a workstation but lemme know what errors you are getting and I should be able to help you work through them.

I run fedora core 2 on a SATA drive. As for the installation, there were no issues and the SATA took the install just like any other drive type.
I originally had a dual boot system but since installing a SATA drive, I cannot get the old drive to boot windows 98 - win98 shits all over itself when it detects the SATA.

good to know. I am running FC2 on scsi(29160). I have had problems w/ some integrated ide raid cards which required a driver during install (compaq dl320 and IBM blades).
For a workstation i would stick w/ fedora instead of slackware. I generally designate slackware as a server OS. FC2 has lots or precompiled packages available and is trivial to setup and maintain.

+T fozzy. that was too easy ... i must not have been using the right rpm. muchas gracias
also found the plugin i was looking for xmss-crossfade so it will play one track after the other instead of stopping after each track is done. sweet!
