Hi. Just type dpkg -i your_deb as root replace your_deb with the name of the locally created Debian package. Hope this helps.

Thanks Kenny, and Sean too. Okay, for the moment I have been able to build and install mplayer 1.0-pre7 with the supplied debian script, with options to disable the gui and the auto detection of the CPU. But still I am not getting alsa support. Here is the list of audio output devices: Available audio output drivers: mpegpes DVB audio output oss OSS/ioctl audio output null Null audio output pcm RAW PCM/WAVE file writer audio output Seems to me there were enough other improvements and bug fixes to justify using 1.0-pre7 over pre6, even if it means using the oss driver, so that is my current plan. Now to see what kind of mileage I get with this baby.

Was there an enable-alsa or similar option in the configuration? It may be disabled by default, though one douldn't think so. Also, you may be missing libasound2-dev. Try apt-get install libasound2-dev as this is the development libraries for alsa. This will allow your source to compile with alsa support.

That package was indeed missing, so I will now recompile and see what happens. Just checked: With that package installed, alsa is autodetected! Hooray for our side!

Well, for me, the web page mentions some security patches, and support for more file formats. Also, it could play some of the Real Audio links that PRE6 bombed out on. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread
* Re: installing a deb package ` Sean McMahon ` Adam Myrow @ ` Charles Hallenbeck 1 sibling, 0 replies; 9+ messages in thread From: Charles Hallenbeck @ UTC (permalink / raw) To: Sean McMahon, Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. The release announcement summarized the change.log and mentioned in several places "bug fixes all over the place", although most of the improvements seemed to be with respect to video performance, and improvements to the "mencoder" application. The fact is, mplayer is a dynamic product with very active development, and it would be a mistake to continue using a version with known bugs when one has a choice.
