Upgrade your glibc to the newest. On Mandrake, use 2.2.4-8mdk .

<P>But we has idegs (the word 'ideg' is described further in the FAQ). And our
|

idegcounters overflow again and again.</P>
|

|

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