Yes, that is what I figured out. Thanks, and oy-yoy

, I 'cd' into the MPlayer-1.1 and ./configure --help...overwhelming to say the least! Then I looked to see if I could find the build files for release 259 (I assumed they would be under /var/lib/pisi/packages/
packagename but no.) So, I quickly came here to ask about build file and you have read my mind. Will have a look at it. I have mplayer installed (by default) but not the GUI and I don't want to compile the GUI or other things not needed that are already installed. A learning experience.
