 I'm using the hda sound driver and I don't have this problem, can you send
 us the output of "pkg_info -E gst\*" and your CFLAGS?

 &gt;Description:<br>
 The configures script for gnome-media and totem hang part of the way through. Two copies of gst-inspect-0.10 are executing at the same time. The first always appears to take 6s of CPU time, and the second 31s.<br>
 <br>
 My machine is a Dell Inspiron 1300. My theory is that it&#39;s hanging because of the sound drivers. From what I know, the HDA drivers currently don&#39;t support recording devices, which is what I believe these GStreamer drivers are for.<br>
 
 <br>
 On the off-chance that the problem might be a library problem, I did a full reinstall of all my ports, and the problem still persisted. Disabling the sound card and reattempting the install doesn&#39;t help.<br>
 <br>
 I was able to force gnome-media to install by selectively killing one of the two gst-inspect-0.10 processes, so the problem may be down to a race condition of some kind, but I&#39;d no such luck doing the same when trying to install totem.<br>
 
 &gt;How-To-Repeat:<br>
 Install gnome-media.<br>
 &gt;Fix:<br>
 No idea. I haven&#39;t been able to find anything so far.<br>
