Beg all y'a want partner ;~>> $ which mencoder /usr/local/bin/mencoder $ which lame /usr/bin/lame 'lame' came from 'notlame-3.91-3plf' (http://plf.zarb.org/) and can't be published for world wide legal reasons.

As Charles mentioned in this (similar thread ?), I'd suggest only the strong of heart attempt usin anything but gcc 2.96 with current Mandrake distros (8.x). You will incur glibc and source problems.
