XMMS is a multimedia player for Linux including Ubuntu off course. Its interface is more like Winamp in Windows OS. Its support many audio file types, and can run in many Linux distros. To install in Ubuntu and Debian, make sure you have the relevant repositories in your /apt/sources.list
1. Debian Lenny
deb http://www.pvv.ntnu.no/~knuta/xmms/lenny ./ deb-src http://www.pvv.ntnu.no/~knuta/xmms/lenny ./
2. Ubuntu Hardy Heron

3. Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope
deb http://www.pvv.ntnu.no/~knuta/xmms/jaunty ./ deb-src http://www.pvv.ntnu.no/~knuta/xmms/jaunty ./
These packages are only build for 32- and 64-bit x86 architecture. If your architecture is not listed above, you can manually build for your own. Simply add the repositories above and do as follow
aptitude install fakeroot apt-get build-dep xmms apt-get -b source xmms
This should give you a few files and a directory with names starting with “xmms”. The interesting one is xmms_1.2.11-1_.deb (where is your architecture). It can be installed using: dpkg -i xmms_1.2.11-1_.deb

Thank you for the article.
I found the repositories in question about a year ago.
It is somewhat sad that Debian had decided to deprecate the XMMS package a while back. There still seems to be quite a number of us XMMS fans out there and your article is doing that much more to keep XMMS alive in the GNU+Linux community.

Yes, I think there are many fans of XMMS as an alternative multimedia player in GNU Linux. I hope, they will continue to maintain the XMMS.
