Ah, sorry, I didn't know that (and thanks to the other poster too, who's name is now hiding behind VI, for a reminder of the -s search tag for emerge, I'm still getting used to this stuff). But alas, it still does the exact same thing. I re-emerged, and the same thing happened, so I unmerged and re-merged mplayer, and alas, it's still broken. Is there something I can do to flush both out of my system and start again from scratch, as it were? Thanks for all the help! Adam -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
