Well i'm trying to play some mp3 and movie so i download
mplayer-0.91-1.i386.rpm run it and get
packages Not Found
mplayer-common=0.91 required by mplayer
libfaad.so.0 required by mplayer

ok.. i go and run
mplayer-common-0.91-1.i386.rpm
i get
packages Not Found
mplayer = 0.91 required by mplayer-common

so how can i install one package if it is required by another and
vice-versa ??!!

and second question when i want to remove in RH9 some packages i
installed how do i do it ? i even can't find where the files of some rpm
were put :)

i really hope some one will help me with this one. totally new to linux
...
tnx in advance
