[xine-user] Newbie Xine problem(s)

[Charles B. <li...@pa...>]

Hi,

I am new to Xine and have just built version 0.9.3 on my Dell Inspiron 8100 
laptop.

When I try to run the program, it fails and gives the following console 
output:

This is xine (X11 gui) - a free video player v0.9.3
(c) 2000, 2001 by G. Bartsch and the xine project team.
Built with xine library 0.9.3 [Thu 15 Nov 2001 20:41:12]-[gcc version 2.95.2 
19991024 (release)]-[Linux 2.4.13 i686].
Found xine library version: 0.9.3 (0.9.3).
unable to open /home/charles/.xine_keymap
Display is not using Xinerama.
xine-ui: no response to command.
main: probing <Syncfb> video output plugin
load_plugins: video output plugin 
/usr/local/lib/xine/plugins/xineplug_vo_out_syncfb.so: init_video_out_plugin 
failed.
main: all available video drivers failed.

My kernel version is 2.4.13 (self built) running on a base SuSE 7.1 
installation.  The graphics card is the NVidia GeForce Go 2.  I am running 
the latest NVidia drivers (1.0-1541, again built myself).

My questions are as follows:

What is Xinerama?  Do I need it and, if so, how do I get it?
Do I need a ~/.xine_keymap file and how do I get one/set one up?
When configuring xine-dvdnav I get the message 'Could not find 
libdvdread...'.  Where do I get this library from?

Sorry if these are stupid questions, your assistance will be appreciated.

Cheers,

Charles Berger.
