Where is XMMS in Hardy Heron?

I was looking for a smaller audioplayer application than amarok in Ubuntu Hardy. “XMMS” came immediately to my mind, but I couldn’t find it in the software repositories. A quick search with the help of Google led me to this page:

It looks nearly the same as XMMS and the usage is also the same – so that’s the application of my choice for me now.

Timeouts problems with phpmyadmin when inserting from larger dumps

Today i tried to insert data to a mysql-database from a sql-dump with phpmyadmin. Although the dumpfile was not so big (1,8M) i got a timeout after about 30 secondes each time I tried it. This timeout is often by webhosters in their PHP installation.
The problem is that the customer (me in this case) is not able to increase this value :-( So what to do?
After googling a bit I found the solution: It’s called Bigdump! Wow!!! :-)
