Hi, I use avifile from 
http://divx.euro.ru/
First of all, as root (or su), extract the binaries-xxx.zip to 
/usr/lib/win32. Next extract the avifile-xxx.tar.gz file to /home/user. 
Now
cd avifile
./configure
make
su 
make install

Note that before doing all these, you probably have to first select and 
install the developer packages for SDL and Qt via Mandrake Software 
Manager. Check the compile messages for any other unsatisfied 
dependencies if anything fails at any point, and install accordingly.

You can now create a shortcut on the menu or your desktop pointing to:
/usr/local/bin/aviplay

Now you can watch DivX, WMP (though limited to non-streaming) and ASF 
files too. :)
