mpg321 (and, to a lesser degree, mpg123) absolutely flogged my p166 (they needed to be at -20 to not skip ... most of the time). Admittedly I was running KDE at the time, but hey. Freeamp is much, much less CPU-intensive. Freeamp is good. Unfortunately it's much tighter than mpg(123|321) on broken files (e.g. incomplete/whatever), so you may get it bailing on a few. -- Daniel Stone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <luca> aaronl, i have this site you should see... <aaronl> lemme guess, goatse.cx? <luca> how did you know! -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
