Hi folks,

So I'm an Ubuntu novice. Here's what I want to do:

- Install XMMS using synaptic
- get a graphical frontend for XMMS (any recommendations?)
- get an equalizer for XMMS
- make XMMS work with MP3 & WMA files.

no clue where to start...

thanks,

-'Mage

Just open Synaptic and search for xmms, install the program itself and then look for a front end and any other add ons.

I really liked xmms however I now use "Audacious". I believe it is a replacement for xmms and is actively being maintained. It even comes with an xmms shell.

I am actually using Exaile now... I like it thus far.
