    Hello,

    I recently installed Fedora core1 on a Vaio desktop. A
    few issues I struggle with:

    mp3
    mp3's doen't play. So I ran yum from the command line
    which took a long time dloading all packages. I also
    ran 'yum install xmms-mp3' since I installed the xmms
    mp3 player. After logout and login in KDE xmms loads
    the mp3 file but when I want to play it the player
    'runs' through it in 2 secs (song takes longer!),
    mp3 is enabled in it's Options-preferences-Audio I/O
    Plugins menu.
    All the info (time, title) is displayed in the
    player. But no audio.

    b.t.w. I hear the system alert sounds OK so it seems
    to be no soundcard issue.

    Music PLayer:
    Internet radio does not work - there are no internet
    radio stations. Do I have to get that list myself?

    Install software:
    Installing software via terminal: sometimes the
    installer does its work (Wine, Acrobat) but afterwards
    I don't see the application anywhere or cannot get it
    to run (Acrobat). Windows diplsays shortcuts / items
    in the start menu. How does Fedora display options to
    start newly installed software?

    I guess these are pretty newbie q's but would be
    grateful if anyone here could point me in the right
    direction.

    TIA,

    Marc
