Thanks for all the suggestions! I've gotten alsaplayer to work. not
bad.
I'm staying away from the command line ones. =P I need the 'bloated'
players.
RhythmBox seems awesome, except i'm having a heck of a time installing
it.
Using Debian and apt-get i've gotten the program installed but i'm
missing a plugin/module called "gnomevfssrc". I am assuming that's in
the plugin package which apt-get installed, but I cannot find just the
gnomevfssrc to see if it's really installed.
I think Rythmbox will what i will be using, if i can get it to play...
thanks again,
-Mark
