If alsa is loaded, I get output errors no matter what output plugin is being used by Xmms. I'm using a Dell Latitude.

Hmm - I'm using a Dell Latitude D400 and I don't have any problems with alsa and xmms. I did modify the alsa extension, but only to add alsamixer, aplay, etc - I didn't touch the drivers

Excellent;  in that case, let's just trade laptops, and that should solve my problem.  I'll be sending you a c610.  Please email address. :D

Streamripper is a real gem when you know the URL. Anybody know a linux equivalent of "url snooper?"

You should be able to get a stream's URI the same way regardless of which player is embedded, i.e., by finding the file info. You can also right click on any page and scroll to "view page info" or some variation of that in any browser and get all the links contained on a page. Some streaming aggregation sites like shoutcast run their links through a database instead of directly so that's of little use -- you can either follow site links and get their stream URIs there or from XMMS.

(I keep lists of various PLS streams I like and use scripts so I just have to click an icon or run it from cron.)

For the few sites I've tried (kjazz, pandora), the media URLs  listed in the browser's "page info" (firefox) don't work with streamripper, while the file.info in xmms (when available) does.

I just tried loading alsa drivers onto my Dell Inspiron 1000; also didn't work. I booted with "dsl alsa," mydsl loaded alsa.unc and gnu utilities, and changed the default plugin in xmms to alsa.  Attempting to load any sound file produced an output driver error.  (same as on Dell Latitude C610).
