| 69 | |
| 70 <P>Unfortunately MPlayer is out of our control. It's used by lamers, Linux users | |
| 71 who can't even use windows, and never tried to compile a kernel. They installed | |
| 72 (with default options) Mandrake or RedHat or Suse, and without RTFM'ing they | |
| 73 send messages saying 'it doesn't work! help me! please! i'm new to the linux! | |
| 74 help! oh! help me!'. We can't stop them, but at least we try to force them RTFM | |
| 75 and to read fuckin' messages of ./configure and mplayer.</P> | |
| 76 | |
| 77 <P>And you clever guys come and flame us with gcc 2.96 and binary packages. | |
| 78 Instead of helping users or making patches to help solve problems.</P> | |
| 79 | |
| 80 <P>Half of our spare/free time is spent by answering silly mails here and | |
| 81 making newer tricks and checks to configure to avoid such mails.</P> | |
| 82 | |
| 83 <P>And there is a balance. On one hand are you, clever guys, saying we are very | |
| 84 bad because we don't like buggy gcc 2.96, and at the other hand there are the | |
| 85 'new to linux' guys who are showing us gcc 2.96 is buggy.</P> | |
| 86 | |
| 2954 | 87 <P>Conclusion: we can't be good. Half of people always will say we are bad.</P> |
| 2137 | 88 |
| 89 <P>Maybe we should close the project, make it closed source, commercial, and | |
| 90 provide install support for it. then we could leave current work, so | |
| 91 development could go faster, and we earn lots of money with it and buy a big | |
| 92 house, etc etc. Do you really want it? It seems.</P> | |

238 you must specify the -vm and the -fs switch, and you're done. |
| 1682 | 239 Make sure you have the right Modelines in your XF86Config file, and |
| 240 try if the DGA driver (and SDL's DGA driver, see RTFM) works for you. | |

| 598 for output, thus it should work for you. Compile in libavcodec support. | |
