thanks Gideon, and Kenneth. I've got it working now. Since I use mandriva: i just did: urpmi xine-faad (plus a whole bunch of other packages, e.g., faad for xmms, faad for vlc). and now it all works. for mandriva though, i think xine-faad was in plf-free or plf-non-free, so it's necessary to add sources for those. not all servers are that good at being all synced up with plf either. i like the netherlands urpmi site(s) though. they're the ones i'm using now (mainly surfnet) and i haven't had problems with the urpmi sites having some RPMs be missing. thanks a lot, i'm watching the bill joy interview now. tiger _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
