have you started it from console, to see what it says? might help... And if you dont find out, indeed check it with the xine ppl!
(maybe an apt-get update might help?)
I have noticed a reoccuring problem with the video program XINE, I have hd installed from the knoppix CD and upgraded a good many times however it seems I still have this problem. When I start xine from gui or console it gives no error msg either way but doesn't start up, however it if I keep trying to start it, after about 3 to 5 attempts it starts up. It's like it wants to run when it feels like it. Any ideas what this problem or if this s a reoccurring problem for others. I'm considering taking it to the XINE ppl, but I want to make sure it's not a knoppix related problem. This problem persists on every distro I have....
