[Mplayer-users] Error in building pre1 for 3DNOW! CPU

[Steve Snyder]

I am unable to build MPlayer-0.50pre1 on/for an AMD K6-2 CPU.  Transcripts 
of the configuration and failed compilation are shown below.  

Note that I have sucessfully built and used this same code on a Pentium3 
machine, though in that case I was also building for the Matrox G400 
chipset.  Same software environment in both cases: RedHat Linux v7.1 + 
all RedHat-released updates + 2.4.10 kernel.

Anyone know how to get around this "Can't find a register" compiler error?

Thanks.

Config files successfully generated by ./configure !
Please check config.h and config.mak files, tune CPU
and optimization flags if you don't like these defaults.
You can compile the program with 'make' and
install with  'make install'. Good luck!
Note: On non-Linux systems you might need to use gmake
instead of make.
