1. after a lot of jugglery i was atlast able to play mp3 files using xmms as well as beep media player clash of plugins n that i installed using pkgin from joyent source. [here i did not have any plugins clash or plugins not available / loaded]
2. after todays update, i felt mplayer should work but alas, libx....so.125 was needed where as the system was having libx...so.140. i felt if the system was updated to *so..140, relative apps that  needed may have been made compatible. i am sure it will be solved and OI will truly become a rugged desktop on par with its BSD cousins..!
3. wifi usb adapter. i have WUSB54GCv3,0 cicso-linksys usb adapter which shows up in device driver utility as a usb_mid device. i am trying to learn to use nwamcfg to make this work but i am unsure of using the dev [should it be urtwn0 ot ral0?]
