    6. Problems ( see the FAQ )

1. Requirements:
----------------

  I use Slackware 8.0 with some self compiled stuff. These are the basic
  tools I am using. Older versions may work as well.

    * XFree86 v3.3.6	The x11 and sdl graph output plugins are tested with
			the NeoMagic MagicMedia 256AV ( NM2200 ) chip

    * XFree86 v4.1.0	The x11 and sdl graph output plugins are tested with
			a nVidia TNT2 Model64

    * Svgalib 1.4.0	The svga graph output plugin is tested with the
			the NeoMagic MagicMedia 256AV ( NM2200 ) chip

    * GLIBC2 2.1.2	Has to be >= 2.1.1 because of a bug in earlier versions
                	libc5 ( 5.4.44 ) should work as well.

    * GCC 2.95.2	It is a good idea to use a version > 2.95, as
			it provides better code optimizations.


2. Configuration:
-----------------

  It shouldn't be necessary to edit any files. Simply run 'configure'.
  'configure --help' will give you the possible settings.
  Default prefix for the software is /usr/local/
  Some important options are described more detailed in this file.

	--prefix=dir		XMMP will be installed in dir.
				This is important as, the system searches
				there for libraries, plugins and data

	--enable-debug		Needed if you want debugging code in
				libraries and binaries. Default: No

	--enable-input-gsm      build Plugin for GSM 6.10
				Default: Yes

	--with-gsm-source=dir	Use GSM in directory dir. This way there is
				no need to install the gsm lib and headers.
				But you still have to compile it.

	--width-divx-prefix=dir	Search for DivX 4.0.x at this location.


3. Compiling:
-------------

  Now a 'make all' builds the binaries.

  ALSA plugin is deactivated by default, as alsa.m4 stops configuration
  tool if ALSA not found. If you want the ALSA plugin use
  `configure --enable-sound-alsa'


4. Installing:
--------------

  'make install' will install the libraries, plugins, ...


5. Running:
-----------

  'xmmplay' is a command line player
