hi,
i have all xmms2 packages installed on my Ubuntu
i even have xmms 1.12 installed

now the question is "how do i start xmms2 from my desktop to use it?"

i know how to start xmms 1.12 but it does not show me any text in the menus (blank menus) no matter what i do.

so i decided to use xmms2 ..but how do i start it?

You need to install a gui frontend for xmms2, I found two doing a quick search of Synaptic, abraca and esperanza

You can get xmms 1.2.11 here (http://www.pvv.ntnu.no/~knuta/xmms/)
