What I do with Moz on Linux, say for .mp3 or a music stream, is go to shoutcast.com and click on one of the "tune in" buttons and you will get a dialog box that asks "what app do you want to open this with" and then you have to browse to mplayer executable. You also have the choice of this happening only this time or always when you select this type of file. Very easy if you know the path to the executable. If you don't know the path, I open up an xterm and do a "find mplayer" or "locate mplayer" or xmms or whatever app you are looking for. -- " * Portions Copyright (c) 1995 Caldera, Inc. * Neither Greg Page nor Caldera, Inc. admit liability nor provide * warranty for any of this software.
