Get the XMCD package from http://sunsite.unc.edu/~cddb/xmcd/

There is a command line player included called 'cda' which works
great.  The graphical portion of xmcd requires Motif, though I have
compiled it againsed lesstif .76.

I have used XMCD and cda under NetBSD-Amiga and Linux-x86, shoudln't
be any problems running it on a Sparc.
