hi, i installed xine-lib then xine-ui using:

Code:

./configure --prefix=/usr && make && sudo make install

but it didnt create a xine executable

i get this error:

Code:

[fedora@localhost xine-ui-0.99.5]$ /usr/bin/xine
bash: /usr/bin/xine: No such file or directory
[fedora@localhost xine-ui-0.99.5]$ /usr/bin/fbxine hyper/csa.avi
Video port failed.
[fedora@localhost xine-ui-0.99.5]$ xine-check

         The skin-directory doesn't exist. xine-config claims that there
         is a skin directory at /usr/share/skins.
         However, there is no such directory.
         You probably need to reinstall xine-ui.

[ hint ] Your DVD drive seems not to be attached via ATAPI.
         This might be due to the use of an ide-scsi emulation.
         If you really have a SCSI DVD drive, your SCSI controller is likely
         to do perfect DMA, so there's no reason to worry about this.
         However, if you're using ide-scsi, there is a chance that DMA is
         disabled for the DVD drive. Moreover, I don't know how to enable
         DMA in that case, so you probably have to live with some performance
         loss. (FIXME: check for /proc/ide, provide solution)

man xine brings up the man page; how do i get xine to run.

It says it right there...you don't have xine in your path. Type in "locate xine" (or as root, run "find / -name xine"), and wherever it is, put that directory in your PATH, along with the xine-ui.

thx tbone but its not that i cant find it. it seems that the installer didnt create the executable:

Code:

[fedora@localhost ~]$ sudo locate xine
locate: can not open `/var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db': No such file or directory
[fedora@localhost ~]$ sudo find / -name xine
/usr/lib/xine
/usr/include/xine
/usr/share/xine
find: WARNING: Hard link count is wrong for /proc/1: this may be a bug in your filesystem driver.  Automatically turning on find's -noleaf option.  Earlier results may have failed to include directories that should have been searched.
find: /home/fedora/.gvfs: Permission denied
[fedora@localhost ~]$ file /usr/lib/xine /usr/include/xine /usr/share/xine
/usr/lib/xine:     directory
/usr/include/xine: directory
/usr/share/xine:   directory

does anyone know a reason why this isnt working.

i just tried adding the lines /usr/local/lib and /usr/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf running ldconfig and re-makeing xine-ui (didnt help).
i downloaded and extracted these tarballs from xinehq.de:
xine-lib-1.1.15
xine-ui-0.99.5

please help.
