Ye
I have rpm file with rpm2targz program, turn it to the tar.gz file.And copied all files into /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/Winamp folders but when i try to execute winamp file under bin folder it didnt work it gives an error something like

Code:

/usr/local/bin/Winamp: line 7: 14382 (canceled of English) ${WADIR}/Winamp.exe $* >/dev/null 2>&1

thanX

I'd suggest Beep Media Player, it's a GTK2 port of XMMS so it'll look nicer on your new desktop and to use feels exactly like Winamp Classic.

XMMS is basically a port of WinAmp that runs on linux/unix. Looks almost exactly the same, runs the same, and can use the same types of files. It's also a hell of a lot faster then trying to run WinAmp through wine or whatever.

I have founded another one Winamp packet for Linux systems.
http://www.mywinamp.com/winamp-for-linux/
I will try to install tomorrow, i have a good nostalgic memories about my university time with Winamp )
Somebody known, can I install XFree86-libs (I use Suse linux edition) for Winamp installation? Google don't know (((

Have a nice day.

wow a 9 YEAR old Nercro post

XFree86-libs on the current opensuse

as in the very VERY old ( 14 year old) xorg --no

use a 14 year old os like Win XP to use a dead MICROSOFT program

Since someone brought this back to life and someone else might stumble over it looking for a Winamp-like player, I must mention Qmmp.

As far as I know. Audacious is what is used for Winamp but QMMP is cool beans also.

http://software.opensuse.org/package/audacious

You can use Winamp and XMMS skins with Qmmp, plus there are native Qmmp skins available at the site. I have a large library of Winamp skins from my Windows days. One of the joys of Slackware is that it comes with XMMS, which is no longer available for most distros and doesn't want to compile on Mint or Mageia. I know; I've tried.

Also, I have no use for media players that want to create a "library" or a "catalog." I want media players that play what I want when I want and otherwise just leave me alone. That's just me.

AntiX also comes with xmms and I transfer skins between audacious and xmmp.

It's nice to know that you can use the skins with Audacious; I never tried that. Thanks.

The "library" thing, though, is a deal-breaker for me. I did fire up Audacious a couple of times in response to this thread and I will grant this: It is polite enough not nag me on start-up to create a "library". I do appreciate that.

On computing devices, I normally listen to podcasts, streams, OTR (old-time radio) shows, or audiobooks (usually from librivox.org). All of those are one-at-a-time choices; the closest thing I need to a library is a directory of *.m3u files for the streams.

My "library" is four hundred vinyl albums that I drag out on occasion because Jefferson Airplane and Doctor John and Hawkwind and Carmen with Marilyn Horne and the Berlin Philharmonic performing Scherazade which is my single favorite bit of music of all time. I'm old and cranky and set in my ways.:)

I use .pls instead of .m3u in xmms and audacious myself for streaming radio. I even hand make my own .pls if I get a url ogg or whatever.

Code:

$ ls

Edit: I also have boxes and boxes and boxes of vinyl albums and a Bang & Olufsen turntable myself.

I don't have a reason for using *.m3u, other than it's I used first. Inertia is a powerful thing . . . .

You can write those in any text editor, also, if you wish, but I usually just save them from the player. However, I can see that, if you were making a "mix tape," writing them from scratch would be the way to go.

I don't have nearly the library of playlists that you have; I've only recently restarted listening to streaming audio on a regular basis.
