here are the versions of the browser and mplayer that i have installed. browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20060205 Debian/1.7.12-1.1
mplayer: MPlayer dev-CVS-060430-14:41-4.0.4 mplayer should be coming from this line in /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org sid main i didn't have any such file as ~/.mplayer/mplayerplug-in.conf so i created a new file with the debug statement as the only line. then i started mozilla from the command line and went to a website with a movie. there wasn't much output at the command line, and none of it seemed to pertain to mplayer: $ mozilla grep: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory cut: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory sed: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory grep: /etc/locale.alias: No such file or directory where is the output from mplayer supposed to go? chris.
