I wanted to play a file in xmms and I got this really wierd error.
Code:
xmms "Cake - Commissioning A Symphony In C.mp3"
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0xa6c1bcd6 ***
Aborted

Before this error happened, I installed DCOM98.exe with wine and ran this command for Cedega.
Code:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/legacy_va_layout

I'm not sure if any of this will help, but I might as well post it all. I tried reemerging glibc and xmms. I had the same error after doing that. Any help is appreciated.

I found another error like mine. I'm going to try doing an ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" emerge flac I assume thats what he means?

I'm having the same problem except mine is still doing it. I'm running a fresh install and xmms seems to be the only program not working. I'm using gcc 3.4.3-20050110 and xmms 1.2.10-r13. I updated and recompiled my world and now when it fails to start it gives a glibc error:

Code:
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x408bc996 ***
Aborted


This is the only program that doesn't work. Everything else I've built works better than it ever has in previous installs.


This is related to the latest flac. You need to mask flac-1.1.2.


UPDATE: The flac emerge did not work. I doubt I did it right anyways. Anyone know how to mask it? Does he mean, ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="-flac" emerge xmms

add the package flac-1.1.2 into your list of masked packages:

Code:

echo "=media-libs/flac-1.1.2" >> /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask


that is if /usr/portage is your $PORTDIR.

I then unmerged the current flac and re-emerged it. doing it now - will report if it works.
Code:

emerge -C flac && emerge flac


hope that helps
