Just installed it, quite cool, but it won't use Tracker as a back-end even
though the site says it should and I have Tracker installed.

2nd. gmusicbrowser - for lightweight music player


Quite difficult to comprehend.

Though I did not find Exaile difficult to use, but I suppose it can be
difficult if you just want to play single files.

3rd. get rid of gxine and go with mplayer with optimal settings

6. claw-mail - for lightweight email client (with a couple plugins and

still want to learn that someday.
