You know what's weird?  Before applying the updates from Zecke's testing
branch today, neither of the openmoko or qtopia mediaplayers were working
for me.  OM was either throwing up gstreamer errors or did not seem to do
anything, and the qtopia one didn't play anything and didn't even quit.

After the updates and installing mplayer, both are working.  The QMP takes a

I still wonder what has happened to openmoko-mediaplayer2's volume button.
And why the FR doesn't have the most basic buttons: call pickup, call
reject, and volume control.
