MPlayer Installation Problem
 

I'm using Mandriva 2006.

I tried installing mplayer with gui but i was unable to. I managed to get it installed without gui. But I want to have gui now.

What do I do?

Here is the error when I type "./configure --enable-gui" when i want to compile mplayer:

Checking for GTK+ version ... GTK-2 devel packages were not found, trying GTK 1.2
Checking for GTK version ...
Error: The GUI requires GTK devel packages (which were not found).

Check "configure.log" if you do not understand why it failed.

Ok so that means I need GTK-2 Devel packages. Where do I get them from and what dependicies do I need. Please help.

The main program and the GUI are separate programs .Install the gui as well

Why do you wan to install it from source?
Anyway visit easyurpmi.zarb.org, setup your sources, use the software installer to install programs. You can install mplayer from there too.

Thanks
 

Thanks for your help, now i can get lots of better updates as well.
