I have MP3 and DAT video files which I was running on windows so these will run on Linux or I have to do something extra. As I am assuming that those files will run in MPlayer.
There is a little confusion that gcc-3.2.2-5.i386.rpm on the cd is of 4.4 MB while on the ftp site you already provided is gcc-3.2.2-5.src.rpm of 18.5 MB. So which one I should install
As I had installed complete Redhat with out any customized selection then why all these things are missing there. is there any way I can installed all these package at once so to avoid any dependency.
Instead of compiling MPlayer, you can also get the rpm-file. For redhat 9, you can find it at http://freshrpms.net/. You also have to get a couple of other packages, but you'll have too look at the dependencies to know which ones.
In Redhat 9 (gnome)u acn use add and remove programe to add and remove any linux default packages.
one this remeber if u installed complete Redhat with out any customized selection , then u must have to install Develeopment package otherwise u will face compiling and problem as i.
see more help for mplayer compiling http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...257#post435257
You are right Mobassir I have to install development but I am unable to do so as my second CD is not working. I am trying to get another copy of RH9 from Lahore but it is not available on all shops. When I will be able to get the new copy and will install the dev pack so then I will be able to address this issue. Sorry for this delay from my side.
