Description Jaakko R 2002-10-09 20:01:42 UTC 
This is with gstreamer-avi-0.4.1-2.i386.rpm from
http://gstreamer.net/releases/redhat/redhat-80-i386/RPMS.redhat/

Running gst-register as root gives

...
INFO ( 2114: 0) CPU features: (00000000) MMX
...
<Init> : Avifile CVS-020929-06:48-3.2
<Init> : Available CPU flags: fpu vme de pse tsc msr mce cx8 mmx
Illegal instruction

without the mention rpm this execution of gst-register command is ok

Does playing avi files work for you?
Comment 2 Jaakko R 2002-10-11 17:30:34 UTC 
This is a showstopper, because I cannot run 'gst-register' as root to
the finish.  This means that I even cannot launch gst-player because
gnomevfssrc does not get added to the global registry.

If I remove gstreamer-avi rpm, then I can gst-register, and launch
gst-player, but naturally cannot play an avi, because I do not have
the avi-plugin.
Comment 3 Ronald Bultje 2002-10-11 18:00:12 UTC 
Did you install a RPM for avifile or did you compile it yourself? If
you compiled it yourself, was that on this machine? If you tried a
RPM, please download the source and recompile on yourself.

In any case, this is probably within avifile, not inside gstreamer
itself...
Comment 4 Jaakko R 2002-10-11 20:28:06 UTC 
Ok, this is a problem with avifile-0.7.7.20020523-gst.2.i386.rpm from
http://gstreamer.net/releases/redhat/redhat-80-i386/RPMS.deps/ . I
will try recompilation later..
