When I try to install VLC player in my system, it asks for root

login without root privilage?

What kind of package (file extension?) and what does the command
'file <package-file>' tell?

Hi Michael,
File extension is .rpm
and command "file vlc-0.8.5-1.i386.rpm" returns:
vlc-0.8.5-1.i386.rpm: RPM v3 bin i386 vlc-0.8.5-1
