Mplayer problems.

[Johan Bergström]

Igor.

You dont need X to play divx'es with mplayer. Unless you want videooutput
ofcourse. If you're only after the sound, as I would guess most of the
poeple on this list want. You dont need X. I had some discussion with
someone on this list who wanted video before too, and for that you need X,
and since X isnt really accessible, it became a pain, and we dropped it.
