I'm using (mostly) Ubuntu Hoary together with the libc packages from Debian Sarge, this has been working very well so far. It makes installing packages from Debian stable / testing much easier.
Of course there a several other dependency problems as well, as Hoary was released somewhat earlier than Sarge. But if everything else fails, you can in most cases still download the source packages from Debian an build them yourself, which thanks to dpkg-buildpackage an friends, is not much of a hassle either.
The problem is that in xmms the equalizer is implemented on the decoder level (and that makes sense, I guess). Last time I tried, only the mp3 input plugin used the equalizer settings. Even wavs and audio CDs didn't...
You might want to take a look at this project though...
You're mistaking bitrate for quality... Sure, 192 kbps is by no means CD quality. But on anything but a very good/expensive hifi system, you'll most likely not be able to tell the difference between an CD and a 192 kbps mp3.
The reason that most (all?) mp3 encoders won't do more that 320 kbps is that it simply doesn't make sense. A higher bitrate just wouldn't make any difference... If you need true CD quality, you would't want to use mp3 or any other lossy audio compression anyway...

In about 25% of the world, both articles were in fact posted on two different days. So what are you complaining about? ;)

I'm a Debian user, you insensitive clod!
Does it make any difference for the site/advertiser whether I block ads altogether, or simply don't click on them?
I never ever clicked on ads, even when they were not blocked.

Hmmm, as far as I can tell my license key is genuine. Pirated? No way!
Works for me... With Firefox 0.9.3 and Flash 7.0 r25, both from Debian unstable...

Damn, that was my first thought, too. And you mod this as funny? You're so invidious ;)
