Well, i started installing one movie player after another, and found that mplayer was the one i liked best. ( The ASCII video output is just amazing, even though it's almost unusable! ;oP )
well, anyway, while trying to install another one, the configure script told me that the gcc version i'm using is "only used on red-hat and red-hat based distributions" .. "buggy" .. "not supported".. and that "i should downgrade or upgrade, to any different version" .. when i tried to install anyway, it MADE ME TYPE "gcc is broken" in order to complete the configure.. and even then, it did not finish. well, then, i suppose i have to use a better gcc? i downloaded version 3.0.1 and after decompressing it, i configured.. and here are my questions.. In the README it said something like " instead of make, you should use 'make bootstrap' or 'make cross' is you want a cross compiler" ( what does this mean? what is a cross compiler? ) well, i just tried "make bootstrap". It started compiling... compiling.. and then it did a little more compiling... and suddenly stopped on an "ERROR 1" leaving me quite puzzled.. it said it didn't find a file to compile..? did i download a bad/incomplete file? i already tried bootstrap and cross. in X and in text mode.. i get the same error every time.. am i doing something wrong? i've already installed several packages and it's the first time i got this one... and another question yet! i think this one is the most stupid. I've noticed that some commands and binaries should be in my path, but they are not. ... uhmmm.. how do i change my path settings?? thank you very much in advanced.
