To be honest it will be no worse than installing AlienBBC except the steps themselves are cryptic and so seem very complicated. You will just be typing in a series of commands and fingers crossed - it will run.
You can now avoid the bulk of the stuff about CVS anbd libraries because they are now all bundled into one tar file and since you don't really care about building an "up-to-date with latest patch" version. Essentially the steps are 1. Install the Apple Xcode tools and if any install test are provided - run them and make sure they work. 2. Download 1.0pre8 tar file for mplayer. Un-tar the file into a directory 3. Run the "./configure" command 4. Type "make" to compile and build - this will probably take between 20 and 40 mins. 5. If all goes well type "make install" When you succeed I'll get a copy of the mplayer on the web site to help other. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30903 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
