The commands should acctually look like this the silly word wrap
stuffed them up sorry about that. And the first command should be like
this the other was for Cooker not Mandrake 9.0.

urpmi.addmedia plf ftp://ftp.easynet.fr/plf/9.0 with hdlist.cz
urpmi lynx
lynx -source http://plf.zarb.org/plf.asc | gpg --import
urpmi mplayer


The first one adds plf to your urpmi package sources.
The second one installs lynx which is needed to get the gpg key for the
package for authentification reasons.
the Third adds the gpg key to your keychain
The third tells the computer to install mplayer and its dependences.

if that doesn't work you can go to ftp://ftp.easynet.fr/plf/9.0 and
download the packages your self. Dump them into a new directory and run
" urpmi * " as root. You must remeber that mplayer is beta software and
there are no OFFICIAL packages because it uses some non gpl codecs to
run things like Quicktime. Those codecs can not legaly be included in a
free distribution of linux. Thats why it's rather hard to get up and
runing.
You could still consider compiling your own version its not that hard
and does support more movie file types.
