If you read the mplayer-dev list, they actually talked about this issue. The
offending file is the divx4Vbr.c, it still has stuff in it that is from the
OpenDivX project.

Not true.
Ar'pi had only forgotten that that sticking point was there. In the response
that the snip came from, one of the other core mplayer developers reminded
him that they needed to either rewrite this class to remove ODX code, or just
ommit that file to be GPL compliant. This means:
mplayers licence issues aren't final yet. Wait until they officially
announce it on their website.

--changing the code of the Virtual Human Brain FS Driver...
The permission problem was rectified. It was caused by a race.
Mounting /dev/brain0 is still causing problems, though...
Here's the error:
