I've got a working solution from http://heliosj.iddings.us/wordpress/index.php. Here is what I have done (it's exactly what is said on the mentioned site) and worked well - no more segfaults with .wmv in xine or mediaplayer: 1. Edit /etc/syconfig/prelink and change PRELINK_OPTS=-mR to PRELINK_OPTS="-mR âno-exec-shieldâ 2. touch /var/lib/misc/prelink.force 3. /etc/cron.daily/prelink This relinks all the applications, and it takes quite a while. 4. execstack -s /path/to/mplayer execstack -s /path/to/xine This turns off exec-shield for the mplayer and xine binary. Hope it works for you as well. Markus PS: if this post will appear more times, my previous mails were not getting throug - no idea why. I swapped now my charset from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1.
