Nullsoft has also released Winamp 3.0, Alpha 1 for Linux. Built on a new coding platform named "Wasabi", Winamp 3 offers a module setup allowing any component of Winamp to be removed or replaced. This allows third party developers more freedom to customize the program.

Or is he/she talking about xmms? XMMS (*www.xmms.org) looks like Winamp, but is *NOT* Winamp

Its an RPM... i converted it into DEB as i run Debian.... but it is having some issues with its GUI... it shows up and then vanishes with an error code 1....

i'm probably better off with mplayer !

Beep Media Player, a WinAmp clone based on GTK2, is also a good choice.
