I've got Gallery2 all nicely setup on my webspace but want to add a couple of modules namely Netpbm and Ffmpeg.
I have no experience whatseover so just blindly downloaded what I though was the right files but... its not right and Gallery says it cannot find the binaries. Do I need to do something else with the 2 zip files I downloaded? Theres no binaries there or so it says and I'm confused! Help please
Thanks,
Edit: I got the zip files from

They're just the Gallery modules. You still need the actual NetPBM or FFMPEG applications.
So where would I get the applications from? I've looked but I'm getting easily confused today.
This is probably a good time to mention that I don't know what a binary is! Using an ftp client I have a gallery2/modules/ folder. I thought I could just unzip the file in there and then point to it in the control panel in Gallery but its having none of it
Apache server, (Linux). I can only use ftp to up load files - no shell stuff.
Actually scrub that. I got Netpbm working but I'm having a hard time finding a ffmeg binary precompiled for linux. Can anyone send me this file?

I thought you were using XP.
sorry I meant i was using XP for ftp carry-on. The server is linux. Sorry for any confusion.
From reading the Gallery forum, ffmpeg isn't made available for linux - you need to compile it yourself. If anyone has this file on their server I'd appreciate it. Its only a couple of MB or so I read.

I have a rpm for RHEL 3 ES if you want it.
EDIT...I see you don't have shell access. I can send you the i386 binary if you wish.
Sorry I should say there is no precompiled linux binary available for download - or so all the forums say. People do have it but they've had to make it themselves. I've trawled the web for ages now

It will as long as you're using an intel 386, 486 or pentium or amd/via equivalent. It just won't work if you've got linux installed on a strongarm, powerPC, sparc, 68k, alpha, mips, hp-parisc, itanium or s390 processor.
