List,

Below is a cmdln run of gmplayer.  Please note the four or five last

ls: /dev/em*: No such file or directory

Obviously these device files don't exist.  Why/How c/would something
like this happen?  I installed from rpm:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] terryg]$ rpm -qa mplayer
mplayer-1.0-0.pre5.4plf
[EMAIL PROTECTED] terryg]$ 

Shouldn't mplayer set those up for me during install time?

Am I missing an rpm or should I just reinstall and see what happens?
Wait, I just did that! :O  I'm just testing different dvd vid file
players using some wmv files and xine plays them fine (after I
(un/re)-installed it).

As always yins is da best,

Terry

Asked how she felt being the first woman to make a major-league team,
she said, Like a pig in mud, or words to that effect, and then turned
and released a squirt of tobacco juice from the wad of rum soaked plug
in her right cheek. She chewed a rare brand of plug called Stuff It,
which she learned to chew when she was playing Nicaraguan summer ball.
She told the writers, They were so mean to me down there you couldn't
write it in your newspaper. I took a gun everywhere I went, even to bed.
*Especially* to bed. Guys were after me like you can't believe. That's
when I started chewing tobacco -- because no matter how bad anybody
treats you, it's not as bad as this. This is the worst chew in the
world. After this, everything else is peaches and cream. The writers
elected Gentleman Jim, the Sparrow's P.R. guy, to bite off a chunk and
tell them how it tasted, and as he sat and chewed it tears ran down his
old sunburnt cheeks and he couldn't talk for a while. Then he whispered,
You've been chewing this for two years? God, I had no idea it was so
hard to be a woman. -- Garrison Keillor
