I am using mpd/mpc. But it seems to be poorly written - mpd uses infinite loop design causing hundreds of wakeups per second even when idle, GUI frontends are not well written and either don't compile or crash on ARM. Hopefully mpc works and I wrote a simple binding to CE-RH2 remote. It has the same FP problem with OGG Vorbis. Minimalistic GStreamer (with ivorbisdec) based player would be really nice. > > On 07-11-2008 04:13, Sy Ali wrote: > >> If this is not available for Akita, are there simple instructions > available > >> for compiling software?

If are lazy to prepare a package for cross compilation, you may want to try the native compilation. Akita itself is not so bad for it. It's enough to install compiler and required -dev packages and you can start. You may need to create swap. It's a bit slow, but for small C projects it's still acceptable: mpd: ~5 minutes kernel: ~5 hours -- Stanislav Brabec http://www.penguin.cz/~utx/zaurus _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-users
