Hi,
replying to myself:
Ooops, it seems that the xmms module changed in an incompatible way since I have last tested this player. I'll have a look into this.
Actually, since version 2.0, the pyxmms module is a package and all the function needed by PyTone have been moved into xmms.control. The next version of PyTone will work with (and require) this new interface.
