Question Help linux noob (killert)

Ive been googling for about 30min and can find anything to help, Im using ubuntu and ever time I play a mp3 i get this
Quote:
You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You might need to install the necessary plugins.

Where do I get these and how do I get them to work?

Thank you

Well since your using Ubuntu, you should use Automatix to get the audio codecs, among other things as well.
There is something similar to automatix, but isn't automatix
