I tried to install MPlayer using apt-get. When i try this i get the following:

This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed. The following information may help to resolve the situation:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: MPlayer: Depends: libGLcore.so.1 but it is not installable Depends: libvgagl.so.1 but it is not installable E: Sorry, broken packages
What package provides the above libraries?
I now use the MPlayer 0.90pre4 which i installed from source without problems. Just curious to understand whats happening here.
Thank you!
The best next step is: # apt-get -f install And then determine if you need to remove a lib to install. Looks like you did a YOU update after installing and then loaded up APT. Also, you have need to run # apt-get update To be sure. /Dee -- W.D.McKinney (Dee) http://3519098920
