I'm trying out linux for the first time, have installed Linux Mint, and
am VERY impressed so far. Everything worked straight away, including my
skystar2 satellite tv card, which I was not expecting. XP soon to be
uninstalled, I think.

Anyway, squeezecenter is telling me there is no lame installed, so I
can't transcode anything to mp3. I need to be able to transcode to mp3
for the squeezebox in my bedroom as the wireless strength is a little
on the low side there. 

I was under the impression that Linux Mint came with lots of useful
codecs, and indeed it appears that lame is installed - I tried to use
synaptic package manager to download lame, but it told me it is already
installed.

How do I make SC see this lame installation? Or do I need to install
lame in to a specific SC folder? I have downloaded lame-3-98-2.tar.gz,
but don't know which files to extract to where.
