Am trying to install MPlayer on Suse 9.3. Have gone to Packman site and downloaded the requisite files. Whenever I try to install the RPMs (w32codec-all or libdca or toolame) using YAST the following happens.
1. Install appears to go normally 2. At the 100% mark, I get a message indicating the RPM has failed to install 3. Details show "fatal region error detected"
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
I had the same problems installing non SuSE rpms on AMD64 platform. Instead of using YaST, open a console and navigate to the directory where the rpms are and install them manually. 1) Install rpms using the command : rpm -Uvh *.rpm 2) Run the commands "SuSEconfig" and "ldconfig". These have to run as root. Can other list members confirm this procedure? Regards. Sudhir
