Use this address. http://heidelberg.freshrpms.net/rpm.html?id=19 Download the RPM, not the src.rpm. Install. Go to your favorite commandline. Change to root, or use sudo...I don't know how you're configured, and issue the command. apt-get update Then, once that completes, apt-get install synaptic This will install synaptic on your computer and give you access to sites like Dag's. I don't think these guys get enough thanks, so here's a thnks. THANKS Anywho, once you've got Synaptic installed, I would search for gstreamer and reinstall everything you've got and see if you're missing anything. The important one you need is called gstreamer-plugins-extra-audio La Paz --andy
