[orca-list] Live CDS and MP3's

[Ann <tate886 gmail com>]

Hi folks,

I'm stil playing around with Ubuntu Linux and Orca from my live CD. I 
haven't quite gotten the nerve to try and install Ubuntu on this machine 
yet, as it is my only good working computer, and I don't want to wreck my 
Windows XP installation by mistake.

Anyhow, is it possible to play MP3 files in Linux if you have just booted in 
to it from a live CD, and if so, how? I found some of my MP3 files, and 
pressed enter, but the application that came up gave me several error messages:

Cannot find sound server

and one about codecs needing to be installed.

Thanks.

PS! If anyone could give me tips, and by tips I mean preferably step by step 
instructions in plain English LOL, about installing Ubuntu, and having a 
dual boot system, winXP home is already installed, please let me know.
