last.fm on Asus WL-HDD for Twonky and Madplay

Hi!

There is a Linux-Client for last.fm and the source is avalable, too.

http://www.lastfm.de/download/?showplatform=Linux
svn://svn.audioscrobbler.net/client

Has anybody tried compiling this for the Asus WL-HDD?

There also is a perl script available here:

http://www.lastfm.de/group/mpd/forum/16122/_/352797

but i am getting a lot of errors and it does not compile or make.

How do you install perl scripts? And what is wrong with my zip-program?

Well nevermind, mpdscribble works fine. (As mentioned in the how to in this forum.)

with minor changes based on:

Code:

---

#install console web browser
ipgk install lynx

#install egrep

# use old grep

Is this topic alive?

I would like to setup my wl500g for Last.fm but unfortunately I don't understand how a router may help with playing internet radio having neither mediaplayer nor even sound sub-system onboard.

I do understand the concept of using lastfmproxy, which just a proxy server for the last.fm radio streams and a router doesn't have to be aware of sound capabilities

Could anyone please hint me how a router might be used with the below mentioned bashfm?
