    I just tried to install VLC as a media player to play my divx videos on the aao, but i had some problems which I were not able to solve.
    First I added the Livna-Repository and then I tried it with yum install vlc which caused this error:
    --> Finished Dependency Resolution
    Error: Missing Dependency: libpulse.so.0(PULSE_0) is needed by package vlc
    Error: Missing Dependency: libopendaap.so.0 is needed by package vlc-core
    Error: Missing Dependency: libdvdnav.so.4 is needed by package vlc-core

    I thought that this could be caused by a missing pulseaudio on the aao, so I started pirut and tried to install at "Applications" the Package "Audio and Video". But this also caused an error:
    file /usr/share/desktop-directories/Internet.directory from install of gnome-menus-2.20.1-1.fc8 conflicts with file from package xfdesktop-acer-lp-1652.mcs_patched
    file /usr/share/desktop-directories/Settings.directory from install of gnome-menus-2.20.1-1.fc8 conflicts with file from package xfdesktop-acer-lp-1652.mcs_patched

    My question is now.
    At first, what could be the cause of that problem and at second how can I solve it and watch Divx Videos on my aao with VLC.
