Afternoon. On my way to work I saw a computer sitting in the trash (actually 3, but the other two sucked). It's a hp 522n with a dvd and cd-r(w). 1.8 GHz celeron. I slapped in 512 of extra memory I had lying around and cleaned all the dust out of it. A little bird crap also, yuck. Can you believe somebody put this in the trash! It's fine. Anyway I installed fc2 and when I want to listed to a cd it wouldn't work. Ah ha! No audio cable going from cd-r(w) to motherboard. xmms (my preferred player) makes the disc spin but no sound. Doesn't xine read (ah, excuse my ignorance) digitally and not use the audio out from the cd player? Anyway I try to install xine and xine lib and get these dependancies, # rpm -iv * warning: xine-0.99.1-1.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID e42d547b error: Failed dependencies: libaa.so.1 is needed by xine-0.99.1-1.1.fc2.fr aalib is needed by xine-lib-1.0.0-0.13.rc4a.1.fc2.fr libaa.so.1 is needed by xine-lib-1.0.0-0.13.rc4a.1.fc2.fr libdvdcss is needed by xine-lib-1.0.0-0.13.rc4a.1.fc2.fr libfame is needed by xine-lib-1.0.0-0.13.rc4a.1.fc2.fr libfame-0.9.so.1 is needed by xine-lib-1.0.0-0.13.rc4a.1.fc2.fr libglut.so.3 is needed by xine-lib-1.0.0-0.13.rc4a.1.fc2.fr xvidcore is needed by xine-lib-1.0.0-0.13.rc4a.1.fc2.fr Do you know where I can get a nice RPM with all these goodies ready to go for folks using fc2? I'll eventually want zine to play with the dvd drive anyway, just don't want to spend forever looking for the above stuff. Thanks for any tips. I'm using the "trash" computer now. Cool 'eh? -- -Eric
