You can have it just install the mp3 playback ability, I believe. On the subject of Automatix vs. EasyUbuntu, I'd just like to put in that I've tried them both--EasyUbuntu on my first install of Ubuntu, and Automatix after I had to reinstall in the aftermath of a failed distro-upgrade to Dapper. EasyUbuntu didn't work at all, and for some reason broke my sources.list file--I fixed that, then found the packages myself. I still don't know what went wrong, but what I do know is that Automatix worked perfectly for me, and helped me get up and running again after I had to completely wipe my system. <div>On 5/22/06, maxim wexler <<a href="mailto:blissfix@yahoo.com">blissfix@yahoo.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> --- "Jeremy J.
