Unhappy MPlayer installation


[Log in to get rid of this advertisement]
I tried installing the new Mplayer (1.0pre3try2) from the RPM. But I get following error. Am running Red Hat 9.0. Although the Grey Sector page says that the RPM is all that I need and that there are no other dependencies.

Quote:
warning: mplayer-common-1.0pre3try2-1.athlon.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 75aa026a
error: Failed dependencies:
mplayer = 1.0pre3try2 is needed by mplayer-common-1.0pre3try2-1

you should install mplayer from sources instead, you can enable all sorts of neat stuff like fb and aa output, joystick control..., even remote controls.

Thanks guys. I think I have this one sorted out now. Seems that there was a small detail I missed out. I hadn't downloaded the default skins package.
Anyways, thanks a million for the help.
Now I know where to run for my linux worries.
