You are right, meanwhile I got the script working -
now I can control my playlist on my intranet using gstreamer which
has remarkable better sound than mpd (mpg123)
but still it would be nice to get rid of those warnings.
Is there a way to setup gnome to recognize
that we are working in an cgi environment?
