    winamp for linux

    YESTERDAY I DOWNLOAD WHAT SEEMES TO HAVE BEEN WinAMP for linux download location seems to have pointed to the winampsite but after installing it i cant find it on my system,

    tried whereis winamp, with diffrent spellings
    whatis, nothing.... perhaps i have installed a backend app and now need the front end to it or maybe its a freakin trojan horse who knows.


    does anyone here know if winamp was ever ported to linux??

    i searched the winamp webpage and found nothing??

    Yep, XMMS, the X MultiMeda System, is an audio player for UNIX systems. It looks and feels very, very much like WinAmp.

    incase you did not know, to run it either press ALT+F2 then type "xmms" in the command line. or go into a terminal and type "xmms". of course if you wish you can make a desktop icon that can run this for you

    Well checkit out, I know what xmms is, and how to run it, (thank you though, my friends) I did a search for WINAMP for linux and it gave me the download site that a allowed me to download a 1.5 meg rpm of winamp for linux.

    Why would you want WinAmp instead of XMMS, though?

    XMMS can handle Shoutcast. At least it says so on the Features page at xmms.org.
