Hi Reimar, thanks for your reply, let me understand better... when you say : * "never worked", "it was", "we now treat": does it mean "in rc2 as compared to rc1"? * "you need a different build": in the sense that I am using a mplayer which was not compiled for my system? in this case, how do I specify that I have a PowerPC without AltiVec? must I compile mplayer myself or can I still use a debian distributed binary? or were you just explaining the message "AltiVec not found" and implicitly telling me not to worry about it? thanks, Mario -- il melo fa la mela il pero fa la pera il fico fa eccezione -- Peppe Barra -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
