[MPlayer-users] Mplayer doesn't compile

[Alberto Vecchiato]

I hope this is the right list to write to.  If not I apologize for the
OT.

I downloaded the sources of the MPlayer-1.0pre3 version, along with a
bunch of codecs and fonts, and tried to compile it.

However, the compilation ends after a while with the following errors:

[...]

I'm using SUSe 8.1 on a P4 2.4GHz with a Matrox G450.  My compiler is gcc
3.2 and the binutils versione is 2.12.90, so it seems to me that all the
minimum requirements are met.  Can someone help me?

Thank you in advance.
