For what it's worth, <killall xmms> did nothing, and xmms remained in
the Panel.

well, what is "the Panel"?

Thinking that repeating this as root might be help, I did so, and now
the Panel shows "XMMS[2]", i.e. there are two copies of xmms running,
I can't see either of them, and neither of them is functional.

did you do: ps aux |grep xmms
and see if there was an instance of "xmms" running?

No, because I already knew that there was an instance running.

Don't blame me for not seeing your screen and understanding your
terminology. I have no crystal ball. And, I have been unable to
*hide* xmms as you described.

Believe it or not, I don't blame anybody, certainly not you, whom I don't
know, and who answered my query that I sent off into anonymous
cyberspace. I have no ideological or emotional interest in pinning this
on anybody, and I don't take malfunctions personally. I am only trying to
solve a problem, and to get the system running as it should. Also, I am
not in a panic; if this doesn't get straightened out in reasonable time,
I will simple wait until installation of the next stable release of
openSuSE and start again. In the meantime, I can still listen to the same
streams as usual.

That I have been "able" to hide xmms and you haven't may or may not be a
result of a special talent with which I am endowed. The fact is that what
I have described is what is here.
