in Music, X-Geek

cat /dev/funkywhiteboys

This may be the funniest geek humor I’ve ever seen. I was building the OSX plugin for the XMMS audio player just now when I got this ‘error’:

checking pthread.h usability… yes

checking for GTK – version >= 1.2.0… yes
checking for xmms-config… /opt/local/bin/xmms-config
checking for gawk… (cached) awk
checking for XMMS – version >= 1.2.0… yes

checking for white_boys in -lFunkyMusic.so… no
Warning: You may not have enough white boys to play your funky music.
Please obtain additional funky white boys.

configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile

Kudos to Bob Dean! We’ll see if it will work in spite of these limited resources. 🙂

[Update]
Must not have enough funky white boys: the plugin segfaults. 🙁
