I don't have X at all. So I can't have xv and x11. I know about that. I'm using mplayer for quite some time and I used to suid to root on redhat and lateron slackware.
On LFS I can use it as root and suid root. Not that it really matters, because those around me are muggles and can't really exploit anything, But I want to do things and learn things. The prob is with perms AFAIK. some how it can't open the fb0 device. Is there a way to see if I can check weather the user phoenix can open it? I thought of doing something like echo hi >>/dev/fb0 but afraid it might screw up something. -- ╔════════════════════════════╗ ║I don't know how much of what I say is true ║ ╚════════════════════════════╝
