that was for the second case, ie you want to play a file / something on
your laptop, but you want the sound to come out of FR's
speaker/headset... (otherwise you could just run mplayer on FR ;)

also for mp3 you could just stream the file to the FR and decode/play it
there (see the other reply), this was meant more for movies/interactive
apps that you want to run/see on your laptop... (though most apps now
don't support esd, so you would have to get pulse working...)

to access files from moko on laptop, you can always use sshfs:
mkdir ~/neo
sshfs 192.168.1.202:/ ~/neo
(enter passwd, or set up ssh keys)
