Q Ainsi parlait Alex Hulse :
I use MPlayer as a way of playing pertty much all my multimedia with
linux. On the MPlayer website and in it's configure routine, it claims
that the gcc 2.96 that ships with Mandrake is broken (something about
MMX being done incorrectly...?). It also claims that the 3.01 shipped
with Mandrake cooker is broken as it was compiled with gcc 2.96.
Can you substantiate any of these claims? If it's not broken, I'd like
to put them straight, and if it's true, then what's the state of play
with having 3.01 compiled *ducks* properly.
MPlayer compiled with 2.96 doesn't work, and just shows an empty black
screen. But compiled with gcc3.0.1, it works. That what i did for my MPlayer
rpm.
Question for mdk rpm gurus: for package where configure doesn't support a
--with-gcc flag, is there a way to force compilation with a specific compiler
?

Works with 2.96 just don't use -vo gl option. Make sure you copied the
codecs.conf file to your ~/.mplayer directory.
I looked at the spec file and it has MMX disabled so that shouldn't cause
problems. You might want to rpm -ivh MPlayer then goto the spec
file and remove the 'libstdc++3.0-devel' option from BuildRequires and if
your using gcc-2.96 replace --cc=gcc-3.01 with --cc=gcc in the
%configure line then rpm -bb MPlayer.spec.
