why not simply install the xmms-mp3 rpm for the mp3 plugin? then disable
the mp3-placeholder plug in in xmms. i'm using xmms 1.2.10 with the
xmms-mp3 plug for that same version, playing a stream on shoutcast right
now. works fine.
you can get the yum.conf from http://fedora.artoo.net/faq/ and check
that out. it includes enabled fedora.us and rpm.livna.org. or you can
just download the rpm for xmms-mp3 from livna manually.
