Seeking MP3 player advice
All right, I need some advice.
I'm trying to set up an old Linux box (Celeron 300A/450 MHz, 192 megs RAM, 1 gig cache, 50 gigs of total HD space) as an Xubuntu music player/web browsing box for my Dad's workshop.
I'd like to set him up with a really simple music player—something that he can click the button and it just goes. I want him to be able to put a CD in the drive and click a button and rip it into his library without me needing to be around, and not have to worry about having to rip with one program and then find the files and add them with another.
For a while it looked like Lsongs would fit the bill. Except that when I installed it, I found that it wouldn't rip CDs and it wouldn't play the music it copied, either.
I tried AmaroK, but it threw a snit-fit about not being run under KDE (missing this service and that config file) so that's another no-go.
Suggestions? Ideas? Please?
Edit: Upon looking around a bit further, I think I'll be going with Banshee.
