Yeah. except that it didn't like the RealTek network card. OTOH, it *did*
see the onboard audio, which was nice. J The real pain was finding and
installing XMMS, which Ubuntu doesn't support. L Had to add a 3rd party
repository and install it. Plus Ubuntu *does* offer a package called XMMS2,
which is a client/server app. L Too confusing. I prefer RedHat/Fedora. J

Ok. I broke down and installe Ubuntu 9.10 and set up XMMS with a playlist. I
*think* I have it mostly automated, and it's on a UPS, so hopefully it'll
