So, two questions:

1) Where can I find the 6 files I'm missing?

they should be linked in the packmen site towards the end of the page you have dowloaded Mplayer

...

2) What do the two "warnings" mean?

The GPG keys of the pakager are not installed in your gnupg repository. Unless you install those these messages are cosmetic

Togan, thanks for reply. Unfortunately the 6 files I need are NOT at the bottom of the Packman page where I downloaded MPlayer. Here's what's at the bottom of the page. additionally needed binary packages *: for a): lame-3.96.1-pm.1.i586.rpm (Lame) for a): libtheora-1.0alpha4-0.pm.0.i686.rpm (libtheora) for c): lame-3.96.1-pm.1.x86_64.rpm (Lame) for c): libtheora-1.0alpha4-0.pm.0.x86_64.rpm (libtheora) for a): libogg-1.1.2-0.pm.0.i686.rpm (libogg) for c): libogg-1.1.2-0.pm.0.x86_64.rpm (libogg) Am I in the wrong place? Thx. Gil

yes, *they* are what you need.

Patrick, thanks for the reply. Sorry for my ignorance, but I don't understand how these **are** the 6 files I need. I downloaded the "b" package from Packman -- the MPlayer for i686. There is NO indication that any of the files shown above are for the "b" package (only for those who download the "a" or "c" packages), and they certainly don't have the same file names as those I was warned I needed when I tried to install the rpms. In any case, I already had and installed (from when I grabbed Xine from Packman). Three of the files above are for AMD64, so I sure as heck don't need those, right? So all I'm missing from the 6 files above is lame. Now, please explain how to find the 6 files I listed previously as necessary due to dependency problems. Your reply makes me feel really stupid. Then I think about it again and I just don't see how the 6 files you say are the ones I need really are the ones I need. What am I not understanding here? Your further help would be appreciated. Thx Gil Package b) MPlayer-1.0pre6a-pm.2.i686.rpm compiled for i686 (pentium-pro and better)

don't, the reply was. disregard it.

Thanks. Greatly appreciate your knowledge.

This is not obvious from Packman's site, but the i686 package has the same dependencies as the i586 packages. i686 is just more optimized for your processor.

Ah! Thank you! THAT is an extremely helpful answer.

c packages are for a different processor altogether and is not compatible with your system.

Yup, figured that one out myself! ;o)

right, but you do need the the i686 lame package http://packman.links2linux.org/download.php?t=b&id=6436

OK, thanks. I had already installed the i586 rpm, but since you were so kind to indicate the i686 file I went and downloaded that one too!

...

Now, please explain how to find the 6 files I listed previously as necessary due to dependency problems.

Easiest is to open the package in kpackage and look at the line unmet dependencies and maybe the depends as well. It isn't always so straight forward. Any unmet dependency could be looked up in Yast Package Manager and installed if available on your dvds/cds.

Many thanks, Joe. VERY helpful reply. ;o) Gil

Hi... Do your research on the missing packages and install them.. use google to track them... but here is a head up.. I had the same problem with SuSE 9.2 If the mozilla GUI is not so important for you you can D/L the source using the link below ftp://ftp5.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/releases/MPlayer-1.0pre6a.tar.bz2 downloads the codecs try the essentials... ftp://ftp5.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/releases/codecs/essential-20041107.tar.bz2 --------IMP------------------- install them to /usr/local/lib/codecs BEFORE compiling MPlayer, otherwise no Win32 support will be compiled! ---------------------------------- you can also D/L the fonts.. ftp://ftp5.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/releases/fonts/font-arial-iso-8859-1.tar.bz2 go to the directory you have decompress them and type ./configure is all goes well 'type make' and 'type make install' if there are missing package install them and try ./configure again.. Good luck..... (_^_) --- "Carl E. Hartung" wrote:

liblzo.so.1 is provided by SuSE package "lzo" (install via YaST/rpm) This /isn't/ mentioned on packman's site as a "dependency" but whenever rpm complains about a missing dependency the first place you should look to fill it is your distribution.

libmp3lame.so.0 is provided by packman's lame-3.96.1-pm.1.x86_64.rpm This /is/ listed as a dependency on packman's site.

These x86_64 packages broke it for me. They depend, naturally enough, on 64 bit versions of libc etc. And, as you'd expect, my 32 bit i686 install doesn't have them. Why did packman put me onto 64 gauge rails, and more important, how do I get off them?

so, not using x64 system, you would *not* install x64 packages. You can probably find lame-3.96.1-1suse92.rpm to satisfy the dependencies. You need to think about your situation. You would not install an os2 package or a (pardon me) windoz package on your x32 linux system and expect it to work.... -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/photos

Not all the time, however. Some packages are architecture-independent. ~ You can also safely mix i386, i586 and i686 rpms.
