similar to: RPMS's -- Standalone or From Sources?

Dear friends: Is there a single source for the multimedia applications that are not included with Centos 5: RealPlayer, Mplayer, mplayerplug-in, Acrobat Reader, Java, libdvdcss, etc.? Would appreciate your help. Thank you so much. Benjamin -- Sher's Russian Web http://www.websher.net Benjamin Sher sher07 at mindspring.com

Dear friends: Using Centos 5. I have two physical drives. During install, I made sure to check hdb as well as hda. Both were listed as partitions (which is correct). But my fstab file does not show hdb. How do I make sure that hdb has been formatted and is part of my file system. If hdb is not formatted, how do I format it, please. Sorry for the question. I am a newbie. d[sher at localhost

Dear friends: I installed Sun's Java manually by downloading their Red Hat RPM. I followed instructions and the install came off fine (Done!), but when I try to play it, it won't work. I imagine that I probably need to create a symbolic link to the plugin. Here is the info: [sher at localhost ~]$ whereis java java: /usr/bin/java /etc/java /usr/lib/java /usr/share/java [sher at

Dear friends: I've been trying for some time to install my copy of Word97 (which I own, having purchased it directly from Microsoft with my own license number). I have tried the latest Wine 0.9.14. To do this, I first UNinstalled version 0. 9.1-4 (PCLINUXOS), then installed the new wine from source. The source install asked me to install a number of font files, which I did (bison,

I am using centOS for my server and centOS is extremely stable. I almost love centOS more than my wife. However, centOS is a bit heavy to run on my notebook (P III 1G, 256MB RAM). I need gnome, firefox, openoffice, realplayer, gaim, acrobat and thunderbird on my notebook, but if I install all of them (plus base-system), my notebook becomes very slow. I wish I could have a lighter version of centOS

RPMS's rebuilt or upstream one's used Hi I got a cleanly reinstalled 4.2 workstation. However i still needed to build the following SRPMS from Mandriva/Fedora :- - Chkrootkit - Logcheck - Tripwire - Xboard & Gnuchess - Rkhunter I needed to use the upstream versions of :- - OpenOffice.org 2.0.1 - RealPlayer Gold - Acrobat Reader I needed to tweak Bind chroot to log queries and

I think Jim (the other one) is doing a marvellous job with extras and plus but he needs to expand the size of his tent. A sensible package policy in extras/plus repo will mean fewer temptations to install 3rd party repo's that can break your system. Some of the packages i would like to see are :- - MySQL 5 rpms - php 5 rpms (already provided) - Open Office 2.0 rpms - webmin - rkhunter -

Dear friends: I have been trying to install MSOffice using Crossover. I have an old license from 2002, which entitled me to install the Crossover Plugin and the CrossoverOffice Set up. Support for them has expired, but both programs uinstalled fine into their own directory in KDE. But I do have a problem installing MSOffice. I keep getting the error message "Unable to get a list of

Hi: I'm working with an internet station. The station manager and I firmly believe in Ogg Vorbis. We already run transcodes of the 56k MP3 stream so modem listeners have the opportunity to hear stereo. We'd like to change our primary stream to Vorbis ultimately, but that will involve overcoming a number of challenges, not the least of which will be getting all the broadcasters to

I currently use a patched version of rsync 2.6.3 with support hfs+ file systems. Running on Mac OS 10.4 (Server). It works great but I cant get the output to work correctly. This is the command I use in the script: rsync -av --hfs-mode=appledouble /Volumes/x/x/ root@192.168.1.1:/Volumes/x/x/x/x/ >> $LOGS This give me output like this: building file list ... done Personnel/Library

I've been getting reports from people that my Icecast streams are not working when RealPlayer is used for playback. They all say that the stream plays for 5-10 seconds, then the connection just drops. I tried it using RealPlayer 8 on Windows2000, and got the same results. Winamp, on the other hand, works perfectly. I tried playing other streams on the Icecast yp server, and it seems to play

Dear friends: Just installed Centos 5. Very impressed but as a newbie I am a bit confused about the the role of the Software Updater vs. Add/Remove and Yum(ex). Which one do I use to update the installed programs, please? Thank you. Benjamin -- Sher's Russian Web http://www.websher.net Benjamin Sher sher07 at mindspring.com

With Winetricks, Fruity Loops seems to be working well. The only thing that is not working right now is the packs. I can't figure out why the packs aren't working. If I click on the bass pack, it produces sound; if I click on one of the choir packs, no sound is produced. Linux reads the bass pack as pcm encoded. Linux isn't able to read all the packs that aren't working.

Interesting. I downloaded and installed both HelixPlayer-0.4.0.187-20040615.i586.rpm and RealPlayer-0.4.0.186-20040615.i586.rpm on my Mandrake 10.0 system. With hxplay, the theora sample video, Mixtape.small.ogg, played as well as it does with mplayer 1.0pre4, which is reasonably well. But when I tried to watch it with realplay, the program choked and died. Also, when I tried to watch
