I installed a copy of Mandrake 10.0 which I downloaded deom the net somewhere, it came in three disks. When I wanted to install some other things (like Mplayer) it asked me for the fourth installation CD, I am confused. Can anyone help, I am not a experienced linux user.
As far as I know, the 4th CD is in the boxed version only, but you can configure URPMI here from which you can add extra sources which may fix your dependancy problem.
Failing that, order a full set or DVD off eBay, they're only a couple of dollars.

It's something that standard club members get and above. setup urpmi like the guy said and it'll work just fine, but for now, go into your software media manager and remove CD4 from the list.
