I use MPlayer as a way of playing pertty much all my multimedia with
linux. On the MPlayer website and in it's configure routine, it claims
that the gcc 2.96 that ships with Mandrake is broken (something about
MMX being done incorrectly...?). It also claims that the 3.01 shipped
with Mandrake cooker is broken as it was compiled with gcc 2.96.
Can you substantiate any of these claims? If it's not broken, I'd like
to put them straight, and if it's true, then what's the state of play
with having 3.01 compiled *ducks* properly.
Sorry if I'm being dense, but compilers are something of a mystery to me.
Thank
Alex Hulse
