[RndTbl] Just installed Fedora 5 - Want to install MPlayer

[Mike Pfaiffer]

	Some good things and some not so good things. Over all I'm not impressed, but 
there aren't enough problems (yet) to justify my going back to Fedora 2.

	Anyhow... I just recompiled MPlayer and at first it didn't like the compiler. 
I told it not to check the compiler and there was an error near the end of 
the "make" step. I did a quick check of the MPlayer site and it seems they've 
moved over to a new machine (without saying where it is). I still have a copy 
of Pre-7 from before. Has anybody been able to install/compile it for Fedora 
5? If so, how? Is there anything newer than Pre-7? Have the codecs been 
updated? Is there indeed a new site or was I hallucinating as a result of 
being up until 4:00am the previous night? Do I have to go and get the binary 
rpm?

	I'll ask again at the meeting on Tuesday. Alternatively, if I get it working 
I'll tell everybody how (if someone reminds me).

				Later
				Mike
