Yeah, I got it, I put my email out pre-maturely.

Anyways, now I'm having problems with X, a new monitor, that I know all the specs to, is going to help me write xorg.conf 

Thanks for the help though.-- Samuel (shardz)

My favorite is PyTone - a ncurses based jukebox written in Python ... you can 
find an ebuild here:

If you try it tell me please how the install went ;-)

This is just the inernal loopback device, not eth0.  Try 'ifconfig -a'
and see if your system even knows about your eth0 interface.

If it's not listed by 'ifconfig -a', you need to load the right kernel
module to get it there.

If it's listed but not up, a command like 'ifconfig eth0 up 10.0.0.100'
and 'route add default 10.0.0.1' may do for now.

I use 'media-sound/mpd' which is a mp3/ogg playing daemon (server), then
one of the front-ends (media-sound/ncmpc is a good console client) to
set up your playlist.  http://www.musicpd.org for more info and a list
of other frontends.
