Hello,
I finnally found out the origin of the problem using
the gdb program. The installation of the glx libraries
for my nvidia video card was not correct. I cleaned up
the mess and everything worked smoothly as previously.

Thanks a lot for your help
Olivier

ps: I still do not understand why mplayer with no
video output (-vo null) still call some output video
librairies...
