@led_shankar: Yeah...I tried Amarok, but the player was really unwieldy...I dunno, too much like Windows Media Player and MusicMatch Jukebox I guess...and I HATE those players...really annoying. Also, I didn't like the fact that Amarok can't play music files from NTFS partitions by default...you have to drag and drop or browse to them through Konqueror and then add them manually. Playlist's don't work in Amarok from NTFS drives either...
Oh well...now I've barely gotten settled into PCLOS but there's this new release of Sabayon Linux out and I'm starting to drool already...how's Sabayon for a noob??
