Hi,
I have a Puppy 4.3 on a Compaq M300 with a Pentium II 350Mhz. I'm trying to make kind of small video player with it. I have installed the version of mplayer that comes with Puppy but it gives me the error that this version of mplayer is not compiled for that processor.
Anybody knows of a version of mplayer that works also on old processors?
Thanks
mplayer for old laptops
Which version of 430 are you using? Try 430small or one with an older kernel.
Download it at http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... l-puppies/

has runtime CPU detection ...
plus many other advanced features.

A newer kernel adds no performance handicap, and an older kernel achieves no performance benefit.T_Hobbit wrote:Try 430small or one with an older kernel.
