It's decidedly better than an old cassette player. :) I have one of these players - acquired it about 2 years ago at Sears 1/2 price. It does work with linux. You probably want the package mtp-tools as the player uses the MPT transport library. Inside that package are command line tools to do things like send files to the player and so forth, and you can use Amarok once it is setup, it'll use those commands as a backend. It will play oggs out of the box. No special problems with this player except after 2 years of use the solenoids get dirty which causes odd skips, loops cycling through the browser. I can lock the player so that it doesn't do that, though. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
