You've read the whole archive? wow...

We are trying to help you. But you could have tried harder. You
should have read the X11 documentation or at least the part relevant
to your problem. This is a X11 problem, not a mplayer one.

Interesting.
You are flaming us although we helped you. What a attitude.
Do you think you are really so much better with _that_ attitude
than us with out attitude?
And please watch your tongue, this list is not about bad language, and 
please do not react the wrong way any more if you are being helped.
And oh yes please read the following:

It really helps. Thank you.

Its free software. You are free not to use it but please let others
decide for themselves. Your attitude is not helpful to anybody. 

And oh yeah, please keep in mind: I am trying to help you. Even
after you call me "a complete piece if shit" whose ass you would kick.
