I have already done "rdate -s clock.psu.edu"
And the error
" make: *** Warning: File `Makefile' has modification time in the future (2003-12-09 05:33:31 > 2000-04-15 06:23:19.920663)"
does not come out anymore !
Rite now i am facing this error!
[root@localhost MPlayer-1.0pre3try2]# make
############################################################
####### Please run ./configure again - it's changed! #######
############################################################
make: *** [config.h] Error 1
Do i have to resort to changing to BIOS Time
Coz for certain reasons, i will cause me alot of trouble if i change the Bios Time.
Is there anyother alternative?
Thankyou!

Well, it would make sense to at least have the correct year. At least for the installation at least.
And as for the most recent error, just re-run the configure file by typing ./configure

The rdate function only affects your local system time, not the hardware clock. Shutdown and leave your computer for 30 seconds, then start it up again (do not just reboot!), run the date command and tell us what it shows.
I don't think it is likely to be a problem with your BIOS - usually they go back to the epoch (1970 sometime) rather than just losing 4 years, but it's a possibility. Best bet is to try the date command first after a complete shutdown as that should help narrow down the possibilities.

Wait.......
Hmm... Now the entire setup is done!
I type gmplayer and it doesnt work...
[root@localhost root]# gmplayer
bash: gmplayer: command not found
But, I can only watch video by Rclick and choose Mplayer from /usr/local/bin/mplayer
And i doesnt have the play FWD and REV panel!
No skins as well!
Hmm.. any idea? : )
Thankyou!

did you try: mplayer --help
I personaly use xine (with the mplayer libs)
so perhaps you should check out xine ( www.xinehq.de or xine.sourceforge.net )

Try: whereis gmplayer. It might not be in your path so you'll have to either run it from its location (e.g. /usr/loca/bin/gmplayer) or add it to the $PATH environment variable.

it is easier to use and install.
Big Thanks to all you guys for helping!

My guess would be it was running ./configure again, since that's what was being suggested by make....
Never mind, you seem to have solved your problems.
