So I first tried to use the rpm and got this result.

CODE

The following packages have bad signatures:
/mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS/xmms-1.2.9-4mdk.i586.rpm: Missing signature (Could not read lead bytes)
Do you want to continue installation ? (y/N) y
installing /mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS/xmms-1.2.9-4mdk.i586.rpm
unable to install package /mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS/xmms-1.2.9-4mdk.i586.rpm

So I was like 'alright, let's try it a different way' and got the tarball. After uncompressing, I went ./configure and it went through and got this.

CODE

checking for gtk-config... no
checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.2... no
*** The gtk-config script installed by GTK could not be found
*** If GTK was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the GTK_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to gtk-config.
configure: error: *** GTK+ >= 1.2.2 not installed - please install first ***

So I try to urpmi gtk+2.0. And it says

CODE

# urpmi gtk+2.0
Everything already installed

Now what do I do?

xmms is a gtk 1.x program. You need >= gtk+1.1.2 for it to run.

Try this:

CODE

urpmi libgtk+1.2

Then try installing xmms, though you really should be able to urpmi xmms and get everything...

Maybe try heading over to easyurpmi and adding a 'main' and 'contrib' (and 'plf' as well, while you're at it) source and try it from there.

It *Should* install of the CD, and the deps are certianly on it.

Try and install it from an online repository for Urpmi. Setup instructions for online repositories are in the FAQs, RPM02

Should that fail, there is a GTK2 version of XMMS, called BeepMP that is way cool.
