OK. You posted the console output of MPlayer in config.log.  What I actually
asked for was *configure.log*, which MPlayer's configure generates.
Anyway, if you look in the file that you posted, you will see that it says:

Checking for freetype>= 2.0.9 ... no 
Checking for fontconfig ... no (freetype support needed)

Right now, it seems that your version of freetype is too old. You can
display your freetype version with:
usr/X11R6/bin/freetype-config --ftversion

However, there could be other reasons. For example, freetype may be
installed, but you cannot compile it because a library upon which it depends
is missing. By looking at configure.log, you can see exactly why the
test for freetype failed.

I don't know what the latest version is, but I have 2.3.4. If you decide
to install fontconfig also, then get fontconfig 2.4.2. In the same way that
MPlayer require freetype>= 2.0.9, some versions of fontconfig require
specific versions of freetype. I know that these versions that I have
mentioned work together.
