Video player (Mandrake 9.1)
 

Ok, I've downloaded like 30 RPM's I just can't install a video player...can some one help me?....
also a messenger.... like gaim or something like that... i'm really going crazy...:scratch:



*sigh* I guess back to windows........... :(

Have you tried mplayer yet..........??
on my slack box it will play .wmv, asf, asx, avi, mpeg
make sure to get the win32 codecs they are seperate. include them when you compile mplayer.

why are u downloading rpm's they are all on your mandrake cdrom.
for using msn messenget get amsn from:http://amsn.sourceforge.net/
for yahoo, you can download yahoo messenger for unix/linux
Or/ download and install gaim which works for both of them( I havent used it).
for video player you can use mplayer you can get it here:
