The current version compiles and runs flawlessly on LinuxPPC. I'm running the LInuxPPC 2000 Q4 release, with the latest 2.4.3-final kernel. So, the earlier concerns about endian issues seem to be resolved!
I'm mostly listening to streams using curl and esdcat, thusly:
curl http://stream.somafm.com:8032 | madplay - --output=raw:- | esdcat
That allows me to get system sounds under GNOME. I miss the eye-candy of xmms. I'm a skin addict. I wonder how hard it would be to do a plugin ala the Winamp plugin.
