ok i need to install the libpng, but the system will not let me rpm -Uvh, and if i try to rpm -ivh i get yelled at saying a higher vs is already installed.... how can that be if this is the latest vs of the libpng?

what am i doing wrong. please advise.

thank you.

Trying to install mplayer with rpms is what drove me to start installing from source code.

totem has less dependenceis if you dont mind the switch..

gandalf2041 · 04-08-2004, 03:06 PM

apt-get for rpm

http://apt.freshrpms.net/

Wouldn't run an rpm distro without it

were in the world do i get these darn blasted lib... the stupid libasound.so.2 is one that both mplayer and totem seem to want. when i do a serch for them with google, or rpmfind i get something that is not exactly what they are looking for and need more lib files/programs to install them too.

all i want is to listen to some mp3s while i work on my system. is that to Fin much to ask from *nix?

now i get this mess after using the apt-get to download and install as per the instructions from the mplayer site.

really getting miffed here at something that should be basic simple and easy to do as playing music.

shanenin · 04-10-2004, 11:33 AM

I noticed one of the errors was no skin found. You could try to play on of the songs with mplayer(no gui)
$mplayer /the/location/of/the/song

I would reccomend installing all of your developmentel tools. These are needed to compile from source code. Goto add/remove programs install of of your developmental stuff(it will prompt you to insert a disk). After you do this dowload the source file from mplayer and install from that. You will be so much happier with the finall product. Mplayer was the first program I compiled from source. RPMS were driving me crazy.

Check out this url

Eskarel · 04-10-2004, 03:49 PM

Mplayer has circular dependencies, which is t o say there is no correct order all necessary rpms (common, gui, skin, lame-libs I believe) have to be installed simultaneously.

rmp -Uvf mplayer-common mplayer-gui lame-lib skin

Only of course using the actual file names which I am at the moment far too lazy to look up.

The instructions on GreySector are pretty good, I got it working for FC1 without too much hassle, though because they seem to be in the middle of switching versions apt-get for rpm's won't work even with the listed servers so you have to do it manually.

Lleb_KCir · 04-11-2004, 10:10 PM

thank you, that link got a working copy of mplayer on my system after i added the skin rpm and upgraded that.

now my issues is for some reason it will only play video files and refuses to do anything with my mp3 songs.

all i want to do right now is listen to some music as i work on my web page. is that to much to ask for RH?

CBlue · 04-12-2004, 09:38 AM

Do you have xmms or kaboodle on your system? Both will allow you to play a directory that contains your mp3 files.

Lleb_KCir · 04-12-2004, 11:36 AM

with xmms i dont have the codex, and have had a dickens of a time finding the correct codex that is not missing something to install.

i am not dead set on using mplayer as my music player, its just what i used in the past. if xmms would play my mp3s id gladly swap over to that.

CBlue · 04-12-2004, 12:04 PM

there is a mp3 plugin for xmms http://www.google.com/search?q=xmms-...utf-8&oe=utf-8

Lleb_KCir · 04-12-2004, 10:29 PM

thank you for link, but this is what i get and STILL no Fin music.

fyi why does closing down a councel window delete what ever i had copied? does linux not have a means of storing that copied data longer then that instant?
