Fedora Users — Re: compiling mplayer on F12 with vdpau support

If all I need is the nvidia display driver package why wasn't it installed when I instlled F12 on my system given that I have an nvidia card? A couple of other issues, first there are no nvidia related packages in the F12 repositories that I can find. Second I'm running the nouveau display driver.

libvdpau_nvidia.so ships with the NVIDIA display driver package.
There's no need to install anything other than that to build mplayer
with vdpau support.
