To install MPlayer on an XO with [[13.2.8]], into Terminal type; |
|||
It is possible to install Mplayer on the XO, without any recompiling. The process is still long and convoluted, and will load in a large group of dependencies. As always, MPlayer, or anything functional, may not respect the wacky patent laws of your jurisdiction; make things work at your own risk. This will require a live internet connection, and some quality time with the terminal activity. |
|||
sudo yum localinstall -y \ |
|||
First start with installing the [http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-7.rpm livna repository] package, download it and install with "rpm -i". |

|||
!http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm && \ |
|||
sudo yum install -y mplayer |

Next, you can do a "yum update" or "yum upgrade", whichever gets the latest package list. |

Now, try to "yum install mplayer". It won't work, but it will tell you what dependencies are missing. |

[http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/5528126/com/libdvdnav-4.1.1-2.fc7.i386.rpm.html libdvdnav-4] lives outside any known repository. Download (wget, click) it manually and again use "rpm -i". |
|||
Redo "yum install mplayer", and now it should work. It's not sugarified, but the sugar GUI still gets along with a placeholder icon in the running app ring. |

Mplayer's default settings need a little modification.. ''fill in later'' |
