I just let it compile with the defaults and/or what was in make.conf. Anyway, now I'm happy. No xmms, but I can play my mod files. Only complaint I have is that I liked the blur-scope visualization which I got from xmms. Funny think is according to package.mask, xmms-blur-scope isn't even dependent on xmms. Thanks again.
