FamiTracker
however i guess to be more efficient for use just as a player, there'd need to be options like "auto-play when a song is opened" and "only run one instance of famitracker."
Cool, thanks for the help. I managed to find something while blindly searching Ubuntu's software registrar that converts NSFs (and other video game formats) to sample data:
It's called 'Game Music Emulator':

It doesn't actually play the sounds through your speakers, you need to either convert it to sample data in real time or convert it to a WAV file, it's quite neat.
There is, however, an NSF sound driver package available on this site's download area; if you're into programming your own NSF player, you might want to have a look at this.

I wanted to add ...I like checking out everyone's .ftm files and always have my phone but not always a PC...I use an called Droidsound to play my nsf files from my android phone...it doesn't play ftm files though...i dream one day famitrackeror another tracker will be brought to ipads or smartphones :p
SunVox works in iPhone, iPad, PalmOS and another systems. It's a good tracker, i wrote many songs in that software. Check it out. I'm waiting for the 1.6 version.
Ah yes, SunVox. I remember using that a few times.
I do hope that someday Famitracker can be ported to a few portable OS's. Although, with jsr being kind enough to give out the source I suppose an expert could edit and compile it to work with some portable platforms.
Dangit Delek, now I have to go mess with SunVox again!
