Let me explain the errors and the way I solved it

Error 1 : GCC version related error and
Error 2 : " X11 support required for GUI compilation "

Solutions : check whether you installed all the required development tools and packages . If you are using CentOS or Redhat go to menu /applications /settings/Add-remove applications and install Develpment tools + X software development + Gnome software development + KDE software develpment .
Try again your command ./configure --enable-gui
Then most probably you will get the next error

Error 2 : " The GUI requires GTK devel packages (which were not found) "
Solutions : download the following RPMs ( Search google and get it )
binutils-2.16.91.0.6-3.i386.rpm
gtk+-12.10-33.src.rpm
glib-devel-1.2.10-15.i386.rpm
gtk+-devel-1.2.10-33.i386.rpm
Install it

Then issue the command
./configure --enable-gui
make
su (if you're not already root)
make install

Type mplaer on command promopt --- I got it ..

Is this a 64 bit system? I've had no problems on 32 bit environments, apart from getting the correct prerequisites as you say.

Will get back to the next user who's don't work...will get Email from this tread.Just tried it,works great with Yum.I will share mine with great pleasure!

...About my 2 cents:Livna is kind of concentrating with FC5 I guess?Dependencies!

Have a nice day,
