I'm using the RPM's that come with Mandrake 10 -- plus the drivers also came 
pre-compiled with my 2.6.3-7 kernel with Mandrake 10 so I didn't compile from 
source.  Shouldn't that already have what I need?  Can you tell that from the 
following output from mplayer:

It just sits there at this point.
