JUK mandrake 10

bertcakes · 04-02-2004, 04:42 AM

Ok I have tried and tried and tried to get juk to work on my computer. I want a mp3 player that has some sort of media library. Well when i try to compile it I get an error saying I dont have Gstreamer and I need to get it. Well I know for a fact I have it and I have installed it again just to make sure. Well anyway I get juk to install fine BUT the problem is that when I open it up and try to play nothing happens. No error...nothing. Any advice would be great!!!

Whats wrong with just doing the following as root:

urpmi juk

bertcakes · 04-02-2004, 11:25 AM

I did try that. This is what I got:

[root@localhost rob]# urpmi kdemultimedia
The following packages contain kdemultimedia:
kdemultimedia-common
kdemultimedia-kaudiocreator
kdemultimedia-kmid
kdemultimedia-kmidi
kdemultimedia-kmix
kdemultimedia-kscd
kdemultimedia-noatun
libkdemultimedia1-common
libkdemultimedia1-common-devel
libkdemultimedia1-kmix
libkdemultimedia1-kscd
libkdemultimedia1-noatun
libkdemultimedia1-noatun-devel
[root@localhost rob]# urpmi juk
no package named juk
[root@localhost rob]#

I didn't have that problem - I use a French mirror for updates (set the first time when you run update via the control centre -> software management -> updates tool). I'm not sure where that info is set (probably somewhere in /etc) but try another mirror (french one may be best!). The juk package DOES exist!

Try installing the Gstreamer-devel package.

Thats the thing thats getting me. I have installed the GStreamer-devel package. But everytime i try and install juk it does work. I did get juk installed but it wont play any mp3s. I dont know what to do...

Ok i can try the french mirror but how do you switch? I already picked a us one and when i go into the updates it doesnt give me an option...

The URL I was using was:

ftp://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/linux/distribu.../Mandrake/RPMS

It can be changed in Mandrake Contol Center -> Media Manager > update source->edit

I'm not sure about the URL I'm using at the moment - I've had no updates in 4 days...!

P.S. If you remove "update source" instead of edit it, then run the update wizard again you can select a new source from a list instead.

OK i was able to change the mirror no problem. However. It still doesnt work. When I type in urpmi juk i still get no packages found.

Try "urpmi JuK" using the correct combination of lowercase and uppercase letters as per juk's name.

brownb2 · 04-06-2004, 06:41 AM

I've just tried juk again using all combinations - tells me its already installed (which it is as I had already got it). I don't know why you'd not be able to get it :/

bertcakes · 04-06-2004, 10:36 AM

I tried using JuK even after you said you tried it and still got the same thing. I dont get it. I guess i can try some different mirrors and mess around with that. Because I switched it to the ftp.lip6 one that you said an when I type in urpmi kdemultimedia nothing different happens, and JuK isnt listed. So brownb2, you are using mandrake linux 10 cooker and using that ftp.lip6...., the only one that starts like that, and thats how you got it? I just dont get...I have done all of this and it didnt work...

brownb2 · 04-07-2004, 03:21 AM

I'm not using the cooker but the community version, with all of the latest updates installed (excpt for those that won't). I don't know if thats any different?

My problem's the juk's package is in the 4th mandrake's install disk.
