XMMS installation on RHEL 5
HI,
can some provide me the links to download XMMS for RHEL 5? Thanks in Advance:) |
Follow the instructions here: http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/FAQ.php#B
When ready type: yum install xmms xmms-mp3 |
Hi
Thanks Lenard,
but i do not have internet connection to automatically download the dependencies, so please provide me the individual packages required to install XMMS |
Start with the two packages listed already, xmms and xmms-mp3 and download both of them from;
http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/xmms/ Get the xmms-skins package also so you can choose different skins (the way it looks on screen). The xmms.spec shows that you also need; Requires: gtk+ >= 1:1.2.2, unzip # the desktop file and redhat-menus are redundant requires really Requires: /usr/share/desktop-menu-patches/redhat-audio-player.desktop %{!?_without_freedesktop:Requires: desktop-file-utils} Requires: redhat-menus >= 0.11 So a quick check would be: rpm -qa redhat-menus unzip 'gtk+*' desktop-file-utils . |
Hi
Thanks Lenard,
but am unable to get redhat-menus unzip ,'gtk+*',desktop-file-utils:( please provide me those links,thanks |
They are on the installation media or available from RHN with a valid subscription.

I suggest you check out audacious instead. It's a completely-rewritten-from-scratch fork of xmms designed around gtk2. It's much nicer than xmms, which is fast becoming legacy material and is already disappearing from the repositories of some distros.

HI
Thanks Lenard,
yes I hav valid subscription, I have all the things accept GTK. Thanks David, Let me try audacious! |
Yes audious is a bit nicer then xmms and one can install audious for RHEL5 via the FC6 extras repo if desired. RHEL5 via Dag's site (rpmforge) does have the xmms packages however. both play mp3's and other audio formats well.
For example, I only need to download/install fro the Fedora Core 6 extras repo via yum; Code:
