The error you're getting has nothing to do with whether the libraries exist. Rpm doesn't rummage around to see if it can find libasound.so.2 somewhere. It looks in its database to see if you have a package installed that provides libasound.so.2. You don't, so it complains. Since you have the right libraries installed, it is proper to just force the vlc install and be done. Paul Allen -- Boeing Phantom Works \ Paul L.
