I recommend cmus, it does have an cool ncurses-based interfaces and some vi-style commands 2011/10/25 Jonas de Buhr jonas.de.b...@gmx.net Am 23.10.2011 06:58, schrieb Nikos Chantziaras: On 10/23/2011 07:05 AM, Lavender wrote: I added USE=-KDE to /etc/make.conf , but when I use emerge like below : # sudo emerge mplayer OR #sudo emerge amorok I found that the emerge always download something which contact with X11/lib .

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: How to install music player without graphic ?
You really need to find out what you need/want. If you want a nice GUI media player then you either need X or some kind of solution that works on framebuffer (they exist, but they are not straightforward to get working). Some web based players exist as well. Secondly, mplayer does work on command line. You don't need to do anything special for that. However, its capabilities come limited by the graphics capabilities of your environment. If you ware in framebuffer and you have correctly set up it using kms, uvesafb or something like that, then you can probably play videos and show graphics in your ttys, if not, then you'll need X for that. In any case, don't expect a great performance when playing high resolution videos in a framebuffer device. As for music, there are some very good players for command line, some of them are strictly command-based, others (like moc) offer a nice ncurses-based interface where you can navigate your collections and playlists. -- Jesús Guerrero Botella

I remember once when I used Federa , I also installed mplayer from source code . Mplayer afforded an option looked like --without-graphic , Then I could use mplayer under console and it didn't contact with graphical desktop. It seems that documentation about mplayer is needed .

You can use mplayer -vo fbdev to play videos under console, but you should have framebuffer enabled in kernel and use flag fbcon enabled. -- oooO: (..): :\.(:::Oooo:: ::\_)::(..):: :::)./::: ::(_/ signature.asc Description: Digital signature
