this is output i get and it keeps on scrolling down for unlimited number of times. sound file plays fine but that output keeps on coming and coming. I don't understand this behaviour because Terminal, the command line, does not suffer from this problem. only in X i have this problem.

any solutions ?

Hi arnuld I don't think thats a problem of the xterm. If you dont like the output, just send it to /dev/null -- Hannes Mayer ecarux Computer-Service Cuxhavener Straße 266 21149 Hamburg Tel.: 040 / 98235882 mail: kontakt@ecarux.de Homepage: ecarux.de Steuernummer: 06/276/18018
