Dear friends: [Using Xandros 2.0/Debian]
I am on the very last stage of installing my Mplayer by recompiling from tarball source. I've been struggling for hours but the good news is that I have succeeded completely (by following the arcane instructions in Mplayer's Documentation) in installing MPLAYER itself. It plays DVD's beautifully. No problem. All that's left is the mplayerplugin. I want to install this also from source. In trying to do and in reading the comments below, it seems that I need to install the mozilla-dev files, but since I use Mozilla 1.4, the mozilla-dev 1.6 files (the only ones that will work with the new mplayerplugin 2.11) will break my apt-get system. I would there very much appreciate your help. Perhaps if you have a Debian package that will work with Mozilla 1.4. I understand that you can compile the Deb on Moz 1.6 but still use it safely in Moz 1.4. Is that true? But you can't install the moz-dev packages in order to compile the mplayerplugin because it will break my apt-get. I want to do it right. That's why I have been compiling everything from tarball source. Is there any way to complete this last step safely? Unfortunately, Xandros 2.0 has not yet upgraded their Mozilla 1.4 to 1.6. Thanks so very much again.
