Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

View Poll Results: Audio Media Player Application of the Year
As xmms is long dead and gone, and *all* others value user experience over functionality and thus clutter the desktop with useless cruft, I built my own player in perl/Tk based on the GUI of the old xmms using GStreamer.
Still happy with it after several years of use. Plays internet radio, CD's, MP3 streams etc etc and has NO visibility features at all

I fully agree with you about the clutter and cruft. Have you made your player publically available?

No, not yet, as nothing is documented.
I could do so however, but that would be early next year
(unless you would write the docs based on the script http://tux.nl/Files/20131217142608.png <= this is what it looks like right now
Distribution: Deb, Mint, Slack, LFS, Fedora, Ubuntu(LXDE)

I can't vote! There's no mplayer. Mplayer cl is always running on my box. It does so much for me it's hard to describe. Long ago I found audacious to be extremely capable but soon discovered it was a real cpu hog and never touched it again. Don't know if that's still the case.
Audacious is hands down the best featherweight audio player I have EVER found...use it easily 70% of the time. have had upwards of 150 songs in a single playlist and the thing has never used more than 8.6MB.
however, since I have a rather large collection, right at 212 GB, I use Clementine to keep it all in good order and for Jamendo, Grooveshark and podcasts. it's a bit more resource hogging in this latest incarnation, but it's still the best performer on my system.
