sorry.. here's a file of the readouts I get with this problem with dpkg... Kenward
Package: ucbmpeg-play Priority: extra Section: non-free/graphics Installed-Size: 248 Maintainer: Malc Arnold <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: i386 Version: 2.3p-9 Replaces: ucbmpeg_play Depends: libc6 (>= 2.1.2), xlib6g (>= 3.3.6) Conflicts: ucbmpeg_play Filename: dists/frozen/non-free/binary-i386/graphics/ucbmpeg-play_2.3p-9.deb Size: 69302 MD5sum: 2685e4109a7e84b700030d0e0e5ebf01 Description: Software-only MPEG video player This program decodes and displays an MPEG-1 video stream. The program has been written to be portable, which means it has not been optimized for specific platforms. The decoder is implemented as a library that will take a video stream and display it in an X window on an 8, 24 or 32 bit deep display. . For more information on MPEG standards and other MPEG software and hardware, see http://www-plateau.cs.berkeley.edu/mpeg/index.html. This mpeg_play has been upgraded to version 2.3-patched.
