| Running KDE on Redhat... I made the mistake of launching gxine, and its' setup wizard allowed me to let it claim all the file types it could handle. I discovered that gxine was lame compared to the current xine, so I removed the .gxine directory in ~, relaunched, and this time in the setup wizard told it NOT to claim file types. I used the file associations control panel in KDE to make sure my audio files directed to xmms, video to xine, not gxine, and in both the Konqueror and Mozilla browsers also made sure that those file associations applied. I can't find anywhere in the system that anything IS assigned to gxine, but whenever I'm trying to browse http://www.live365.com with Mozilla and launch soundfiles to listen to in xmms, which used to work, I'm still getting gxine launched to handle them... and I can't find anywhere to further break that association. Anyone have any clue how to undo this file association? Further, I've never been able, even before gxine, to get the Konqueror to launch anything when I click on a "play" button on the website http://www.live365.com, and don't know why that doesn't work, despite having fully configured Konqueror to allow JavaScript launched pop-up windows. Anyone have any clue how to configure this to work? -- Copyright 2004 Angela Kahealani. All rights reserved without prejudice; UCC1-207.

OK, this problem was solved by uninstalling a plug-in for gxine that it had installed (but failed to remove) in my home directory's plug-ins for Mozilla. -- Copyright 2004 Angela Kahealani.
