Ack, hit send too soon.. Sorry for the spam..

My builds of darwine are Intel only.  I only have a MBP, i have no
experience in running Darwine on a PPC machine. Sorry. And ther kronenberg
builds are also Intel only..


However.. http://darwine.sourceforge.net/docs/user-doc.xml has instructions
on building Darwine with QEMU.  I dont know how well they work - again, MBP
- but its worth a shot if you want to try.


There's mac-native versions of Soulseek, why not use one of those?


Sorry for the original short/terse response.. :s
