I crossposted this somehow, but as you are here also ...

Hey wait! Aren't you the one that could run 2 XServers (fglr and
gatos) and the same time? ... This was something that always crashed
_my_ Linux box. Oh well, I haven't tried running 2 r200-servers up to
now.
But one thing: I'm using mplayer from cvs:
MPlayer CVS-020524-15:02-3.0.2 (C) 2000-2002 Arpad Gereoffy
perhaps they have changed some code (before or after this version).

Bye, Adam.
