but i'm still stumped:=(.  i used the command :svn checkout
svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer in a root terminal and
then when that did not work, i put it in the firefox address
space..that did not work either. i cound not see another place to put
it in....so, please bear with me.

Peace......................ed
