I compiled Mplayer when I first installed SuSE 8.1 and it worked very well. Upgraded the KDE when it came out and now it seems that the gui part of mplayer is unstable. I can run a clip from the command line and it will run fine but I run the gui version on the same file, it seg faults with a signal 11. This is weird? Anyone have any clues that can help me sole this? -- Marshall "Nothing is impossible, We just do not have all the anwsers to make the impossible, possible."

Marshall, if you havent figured it out yet, I did after weeks or maybe it was days, of effort. The problem was having libslang.so.1 installed along with the other libslang stuff which seemed to conflict. My wintv needs libslang-utf or something and installing slang-1.4.5 conflicts so the answer it so install compat-slang-1.4.5-2 which will provide the libslang.so.1 and libslang.so.1.4.5. On my machine Kpackage said it was installed but the files were not in /usr/lib where they were supposed to be so I merely reinstalled compat-slang and now I can watch all kinds of movies and things. Hope it works for you. Richard

I just discovered another little strangeness. I can run mplayer gui as root but not as users. So my link on the desktop has a line like : kdesu gmplayer %f Now if I could only figure out what is wrong! ra
