Hello everyone,

I just moved to Fedora 12 (finally) and I enabled the RPM Fusion repo in order 
to install the nvidia driver plus mplayer (and all its dependencies) in order 
to see if I could finally use mplayer with vdpau (in order to offload h.264 
playback to the GPU).

Unfortunately when I play some h.264 material I get:
[vdpau] Could not open dynamic library libvdpau.so.1

I chechked all the packages that were installed (after requesting the nvidia 
driver):

kmod-nvidia-2.6.31.6-166.fc12.i686.PAE-190.42-1.fc12.8.i686
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs-190.42-5.fc12.i686
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-190.42-5.fc12.i686
nvidia-xconfig-1.0-1.fc12.i686
kmod-nvidia-PAE-190.42-1.fc12.8.i686
nvidia-settings-1.0-3.2.fc12.i686

...but none of them provide this file.  Is there a way around this? ...before 
going the mplayer compilation route :(    

Thanks,
Jorge
