Yes. xmms is the greatest.

I want the XMMS for the N900 too. From my point of view, it is one of the best players. Is anybody known porting it to Extras? The media player is fine, but it has no equalizer...

I belive it is possible to run xmms2 the new xmms implementation. It is a server/client based construction. One of the users here (ruskie) has a repository with debs on it, however I couldnot get it installed because it missed deps. As far as I can see there are tons of plugins and many clients avilable voor xmms2. You can try it out with easy debian, it can be installed but needs a little tinkering to get it working. Easy debian is of coures not ideal, and slow.

Ther is also Audacious - yet another fork of XMMS. This version probably stays "true" to the original implementation.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audacious_Media_Player
The original XMMS is no longer maintained and XMMS2 is an implemenation from scratch.
Would it make more sense to port Audacious? - it seems to be actively maintained compared to original XMMS.

I heard good things about XMMS I look forward to any kind of port to the N900, I have no qualms with the default media player really but there definitely is room for improvement.

thats one of my favorite bands right now.I like how its integrated into the desktop like a widget, its both good and bad. You lose a desktop and its not hard to have an application running in the background with the N900's great multi tasking functions but makes it a bit more convenient still.
Looks like no cover art though? I gotta have my cover art & meta tags
(for the last 2 weeks been tagging and embedding cover art into my music collection just for my N900)

xmms 1.x is unlikely to arrive due to build dependency on packages like libgtk1.2-dev (GTK 1.2).

Someone is bound to ask, "why would you want an obsolete player like XMMS?" Here are a few answers; feel free to choose the one that comes closest to making sense to you:
1. I don't know why, I just like it.
2. I'm comfortable with it and want to continue to use it.
3. It does what I want without much overhead.
4. I use scripts that control it from the command line.
