a question about those ever-present (or not as the case is) libraries. I'm trying to get xine up and running. First I did it via the RPM for my distro. It said it needed "LibXv.so.1", but I forced the install.
Obviously it said "I need LibXv.so.1" when I tried to run it. So then I uninstalled it, and compiled the Xine src file, the Xine GUI, and the Xine libs. Same problem.
In /X11R6/libs there is a file called LibXv.a, opening it in Konqueror invokes the archiver program, and contained within is LibXv.o . Now is this a precursor to LibXv.so.1 ? If so, how can I alter it?
Obviously the Xine libs doesn't contain all the libs I need- I suppose that it is an Xfree86 server library. I'm using a fairly current version of X, although not the newest available on my MDK system (the newer version, for some reason, wouldn't allow my computer to boot properly) so it should be more-or-less up to date. I have the most up-to-date stable source for Xfree86, but I'm really not sure whether I should try installing that, incase it hangs on bootup again.
