I just finished watching and hearing the trailers for Spiderdude II and 
Collateral.  This machine is an ASUS A7N8X Deluxe ver 2 m/b with AMD 
Athlon 2600+ running FC1.
[root at mavis rj]# uname -r
2.4.22-1.2149.nptl
Mplayer crud is:
[root at mavis rj]# rpm -qa | grep mplay
mplayerplug-in-1.0-0.lvn.1.1
mplayer-skins-1.2-0.lvn.1.1
mplayer-mencoder-0.92-0.lvn.1.1
mplayer-fonts-1.0-0.lvn.1.1
mplayer-0.92-0.lvn.1.1
mplayer-gui-0.92-0.lvn.1.1

Obviously, these came from the livna repository and I'm thinking I 
haven't updated them since installing last November.
