Mandrake 10.  I did get ffmpeg compiled and installed, after a little 
work.  I found a different site where I could download the files using 
subversion, but I did want to figure out how to decompress a 7z archive, 
for future reference.  The problem I'm having is finding the right 
codecs.  I downloaded the source for "faac", which should at least have 
the AAC audio codec, which I need.  That's the one I'm having trouble 
with.  (My distro's so old that I prefer tarballs to RPM's, seems like I 
run into less dependency hell that way.)  Anyway, the faac 1.2.5 source 
was a real mess, I had to tweak the makefiles to get everything to 
compile, and then it was missing an MP4 library.  So maybe I should look 
elsewhere.
