get the mp3 pluing from yum, as it is not in the normal Fedora-Extras.

Here is a link to the rpm fro rpm.pbone.net:

i386:  http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/1984872/com/xmms-mp3-1.2.10-0.lvn.3.4.i386.rpm.html

x86_64: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/1990809/com/xmms-mp3-1.2.10-0.lvn.3.4.x86_64.rpm.html

Hope this helps, if you have any other problems, be sure to write back.

 I just installed that rpm from rpm.pbone.net, and XMMS started working. HOWEBER, IT IS MUTE! I can see the graphic equalizer, the title of the music, and the time changing, but NO sound. What am I missing now?
 It seems like we are almost there.
 Thanks!
