__{{emoticon}}__ just installed this on my Asus EEEPC 900. Pretty small app for playing your Pandora RADIO station outside of your browser via terminal and command line interface.

Low on resources

I think, pianobar can be set up for lastfm for you European users since pandora is a U.S only radio station.

Pianobar has broken in the version in synaptic (pandoras radios fault). So I downloaded latest pianobar-2011.09.22 from the downloads button at

========= SCRAPER REMOVED AN EMBEDDED LINK HERE ===========
url was:"https://github.com/PromyLOPh/pianobar"
linktext was:"https://github.com/PromyLOPh/pianobar"
====================================

And built it from source. I built it in my /home/harry/pinanobar folder that I made. After building. I symlinked (absolute) the /home/harry/pianobar/pianobar-2011.09.22/pianobar

to /usr/bin. Just used rox file manager, (as root), to drag and drop and symlink, simple. I made sure I had my old pianobar uninstalled (all configuration files) in synaptic first before doing all of this. My compressed folder below with pianobar in it for antiX.

I would unzip it in your /home or /opt and symlink the /pianobar-2011.09.22/pianobar
like I did to /usr/bin.

Sorry folks. It is the best I can do. __{{emoticon}}__

Make sure depends are installed first before unzipping my zip and installing. Like libao4,faad2, they are in your package manager.

Pandora broke libpiano again today. I downloaded latest fix from github, version pianobar 11.09-dev. I compiled it from source in my AntiX 11 base install. Delete or uninstall any pianobar you have installed through synaptic or apt-get. If installed folder is in /home or /opt. delete that one then.

Unzip my uploaded .zip to /home/username. Inside the unzipped folder you will see a bin file I compiled called pianobar.

Open rox file manager as root from terminal. Go to /usr/bin in rox file manager. Drag and drop the pianobar bin to /usr/bin in other root rox file manager. Pick (relative is what I used) symlink. Close everything.

We'll see how long this fix lasts. Hopefully Debian will catch up soon.
