Several projects[2] have grown from it: XMMS --> Beep Media Player (BMP) --> BMPx \--> Audacious > That said, I still plan to move to xmms2 XMMS2 is a very different beast from the Winamp like player XMMS was (is). For a current simple GTK based audio placer like XMMS, see audacious. FWIW, I have trouble with audacious playing ogg vorbis streams. Other than that, I've had no problems with it. > after my system finishes rebuilding all of its ports this weekend > after my move from RELENG_7 to HEAD.

If you've done it before, then I presume you are used to ports having trouble building and running and the occasional need for compats.
