on suse 9.2 old box, mplayer form packman is giving me 'illegal instruction' when i run it, any way to get around this ?
MPlayer runs great on this "older" 9.2 box. I'm sure it will on your's, too. But you need to supply some context for others to better understand your problem. Examples of context you could supply (framed as questions): You didn't download the rpm by itself and 'force' install it, did you? There are dependencies to meet. Have you met them? Are your system updates current? And is your rpm database consistent and your system otherwise coherent and stable? Is a particular file or file /type/ eliciting the "illegal operation" message? Or will MPlayer just not launch at all? And, you're not trying to launch it as root, are you? ;-) There are endless others, but I'm sure you get the idea. Your problem is described so vaguely, with so little detail, it is hard to know where to start trying to help. regards, - Carl
