I built everything with softfloat and used libmad and tremor for mplayer. Mp3's play great with madplay and/or mplayer. Video's encoded with settings similar to what is needed for pocket pc's also play extremely well full screened.
While i too like debian it was just too heavy on these machines. My rootfs at 125mb would take about 500mb if i installed the same software in debian. The only 2 drawbacks right now are lack of udev support and wpa (without skytones weird proprietary wifiup and wireless-lan software). Cheers.
