[MPlayer-users] gcc3 compile problems on k6

hey all.

tried to compile mplayer 5.0 on my Linux-Mandrake 8.0 box, and
./configure said it didn't like gcc v 2.96. so i dutifully downloaded
3.0.1 from gnu, and found that i was getting the compiler errors that
other folks on this list have had.

seems to be a gcc 3 vs k6 (dunno about k7) problem. what worked for me
was this:

export CFLAGS="-march=i586 -mcpu=i586 -O2"
./configure --enable-mmx --enable-3dnow --enable-x11 --prefix=/usr
make
make install

maybe higher optimisations will work? change the prefix and other
options to suit your set-up. 

so you get the 3d-now stuff, but it compiles with pentium optimisation
rather than k6. maybe not quite as good as k6, but at least it runs,
right?

hope this helps some.

rich.
