sounds like cron is already running.
try "ps -C cron" to check.

edit:
OK...so you know it's running.....

Hey thanks! I think I have figured it out.

I put an entry in the system-wide crontab file:

#start xmms at 11:30am everyday and stream groovesalad
30 11 *** dsl xmms /home/dsl/groovesalad.pls

hope it's ok to put it in the systemwide crontab. heh!

hope this helps somebody else
