I have not yet tested it in Quantal using your ppa. -------- By the way, will Quantal work with non-pae kernels? I have two computers where mplayer2 does not work, one is an IBM Thinkpad without pae and one Dell pentium 4 with pae. Best regards Nio -------- Yippee, it works, Julien! Now I have downloaded the daily build Lubuntu Quantal (Oct 17), made a persistent USB drive with Unetbootin and installed your version of mplayer2 from launchpad/gilir. It works in my Dell Dimension 4600 (pentium 4 with pae), where mplayer2 has never worked for me in Precise. I have not done any thorough testing yet, only tested with an mp4 file transformed by ffmpeg from an MTS file from my video camera. Best regards Nio alias sudodus -------- This morning I checked and yes, Lubuntu Quantal needs pae, so it does not work with any of the old IBM Thinkpads without pae. Is there any chance that the update to mplayer2 package might work with Precise? Now or in the future? After all, Precise has LTS (at least for Ubuntu and Xubuntu).
