mplayer worked once, then no more. Using the iceape browser I went to a
www.whyy.org and connected to the sound stream - no problem. Then
stopped this stream, went to www.wrti.org and connected to the sound
stream - mplayer quickly reported 99% complete and the buffer just kept
on filling. Returned to www.whyy.org and tried to connect to the sound
stream - failed, same 99% and buffer just keeps on loading. Tried
stopping and restarting iceape - same problem. Tried stopping and
restarting gdm - same problem.
Since it worked once, something needs to be reset but what?
