*** 12,16 ****
  ~~~~~~~~~~
  Q: SDL output doesn't work or compile. Problem is ....
! A: It works only with SDL v1.1.7 (and maybe newer)
     It does NOT work with 1.1.6, 1.1.5 1.1.4 1.1.3 1.0.4 etc, don't ask.

  Q: SDL output doesn't work or compile. Problem is ....
! A: It is tested with SDL v1.1.8 (probably runs on 1.1.7 too).
     It does NOT work with 1.1.6, 1.1.5 1.1.4 1.1.3 1.0.4 etc, don't ask.

*** 34,42 ****
  
  Q: fullscreen option (-fs) and/or -xy doesn't work with x11 driver (-vo x11)
! A: x11 driver doesn't support scaling, and it can't change screen resolution.
!    Yes, I know that it should be but I have no time to write software
!    scaling routines and experiencing with XVidMode extension...
!    You can do it yourself, just press ALT,CTRL,- or ALT,CTRL,+ simultaneously,
!    see X-server docs for details.
  
  Q: audio goes out of sync playing .avi file
--- 34,41 ----
  
  Q: fullscreen option (-fs) and/or -xy doesn't work with x11 driver (-vo x11)
! A: x11 driver doesn't support scaling, but XF86VidMode support is now
!    used: you must specify the -vm and the -fs switch, and you're done.
!    Make sure you have the right Modelines in your XF86Config file, and
!    try if the DGA driver works for you. It's much faster.
  
  Q: audio goes out of sync playing .avi file
***************
*** 100,109 ****
  A: It's a damaged file with bad mp3 audio stream. Try it with  -afm 4
  
- Q: It aborts with signal 11 playing a file with IMA-ADPCM audio.
- A: This codec isn't yet supported!
- 
  Q: Are there rpm/deb/... packages of MPlayer?
! A: Not yet. However, you can make a .deb package for yourself, check
!    DOCS/DEBIAN
  
  Q: Are there any mailing lists on MPlayer?

!          i686, etc.
!    NOTE: MANUAL COMPILATION _ALWAYS_ GIVES BETTER PERFORMANCE AND SPEED !

  6. If you have speed problems (too slow playing), then please first check that:
!    - you don't use OpenGL driver while have software-only opengl (DRI disabled,
!      or not yet installed, conflicting libs installed, or your hardware not
!      supported etc...)
     - you have set up MTRR registers properly (many new cards are really
       slow without setting up MTRR registers. it's NOT done by X 3.3.x! Also,
       there are older K6-2's, which lack MTRR support /stepping=0/).
     - you have a fast machine (don't report that your 386 can't play DivX)
     - try with Null output (-vo null) and check CPU usage (first % value)

     - no sound at all: check that you have working OSS driver (/dev/dsp),
       and it isn't used by another program (for example esd, xmms etc.)
  
  8. unsupported codecs (AVI files):
!    We may add support for your movie, but we need the following things:
!    - the codec DLL file: find it in your WINDOWS directory. In the SYSTEM.INI
!      there will be a listing of the installed codecs (vids.<codecname>=DLLfile)
!    - a sample file encoded with that codec.
