compling geexbox on whiite

Post by chickenfish4 »

Hi, I currently have whiite 1.10 (debian lenny) and fluxbox installed on my wii, but ive been having trouble getting a decent mediaplayer to work on it, so would it be possible to build and install geexbox, or whichever version of mplayer it uses and use that for a media player. and if so how would i go about doing that?

You can compile geexbox on whiite

You can't run geexbox from within whiite, because geexbox is a distro, not an application

You can run geexbox for wii's 'version of mplayer' from within whiite, some hacks probably necessary, but only in console mode, not in X

It is only theoretically possible.

But you will have to provide correct versions of all the dynamically linked libraries, so it will be a horrible mess.
