Hi all,

I'm getting the following messages on /var/log/mpd.error.log:

Code:
Dec  8 12:50 : current locale is "C"
Dec  8 12:50 : setting filesystem charset to ISO-8859-1
Dec  8 12:50 : unable to open oss mixer "/dev/mixer"
Dec  8 12:50 : using software volume


Since MPD (using ncmpc client) works great, I dont really know if these are _actually_ errors.

MPD webpage or google didn't help me to solve my questions :?

Does anybody know what those errors mean? Should I just ignore them?

Thanks in advance.

They aren't really errors but more like warnings. I think you can fix the locale warning by setting:
"filesystem_charset "UTF-8" " in mpd.conf. Also, can you post the mixer lines in your mpd.conf, maybe it's something wrong in there too.

/dev/mixer issue was solved after realizing that OSS Mixer API was not in the kernel 8) (This makes me wonder if i am really using ALSA an not OSS :? )

Gonna check your suggestion about locale.

Thanks
