Try in a terminal as root,

aptitude update
aptitude install vlc

Accept the first offer.

(Or post back with message if you are not sure)

After executing the first command I get in the end:

PASS failed, server said: Sorry, the maximum number of allowed clients (10) are already connected.

So, probably I have to try it later again.

Nevertheless, the second command has installed VLC correctly (wow, great!) though it has again produced the error in the end:

The Mepis repos are being hit hard at the moment as Mepis just announced a rc1 release.
