Howdy David; "...some linux player" is a little vague. What are you trying to do, what player are you trying to do it with, what errors are you seeing? Does the system you're using meet or exceed the "minimum system requirements" for DivX? i.e.: 64 MB RAM, minimum 8 MB Video card, minimum P II 450 MHz processor? Let's just hope you're running Mandrake 9.1 (Bamboo) for this next part. Get the Mandrake specific divx4linux RPM (the one shown is from mid March, I don't what the latest is) from one of the PLF mirrors (Penguin Liberation Front) such as this one: http://ftp.club-internet.fr/pub/linux/plf/9.1/i586/ You can add PLF as a software source by going to: http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/ and following the instructions on the page. You'll be able to add Texstar's contrib directory, a contrib directory for a Mandrake mirror, etc. Finally; have you been to: http://www.divx.com/divx/linux/ They have FAQ and support links from there. Best I can do since I don't use divx. HTH Charlie -- Edmonton,AB,Canada Registered user 244963 at http://counter.li.org Mandrake 9.1 Bamboo (cooked)
