MPlayer won't launch with an GUI

[TheCyberDude]

I've been working on this for 3 days!

MPlayer won't launch an GUI interface.

Will play from command line.

./configure --enable-gui --enable-png

Installs no errors of any kind.

Also I can't find gui.conf and what to put in it.

I was reading the README, and it said if you had any
library type error's to do this: ldd ./mplayer

NOTE: I HAD NO ERROR AT ALL!

Most all of these are there! (An link to --> the file)

Put /usr/local/lib in /etc/ld.so.conf and did ldconf

ld.so.conf:

/lib
/usr/lib
/usr/local/lib
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/i486-linuxlibc1/lib

Some kind of libray problem (link) here?

Thanks....

What command are you issuing to start mplayer?

The mplayer gui is started by using "gmplayer"

OR launch gmplayer from root to take care of this problem!

I am trying to follow these instructions for installing MPlayer.

apt-get install mencoder-686 mplayer-686 avidemux
--> This works without any issues.

However,
next gmplayer
failed because "next" (the command) is not found.

Similarly the remaining two commands also failed.

I am trying to listen to Real Audio files from www.marketplace.org using MPlayer.

Thanks for assisting.
