clearplayer *IS* the default (see my comment - #3) It's just that clearplayer skin is part of "mplayer-skins" is not installed when one installs mplayer, because it is not listed as dependency, while "mplayer-skin-blue" gets installed to provide dependancy for "mplayer-skin".
Notice "mplayer-skins" vs. "mplayer-skin", the latter being a meta pacakge that pulled "mplayer-skin-blue".. Notice in my comment (#2) I pasted output of `aptitude why mplayer-skin- blue` (which it was installed, and not mplayer-skins instead): # aptitude why mplayer-skin-blue i mplayer Depends mplayer-skin i A mplayer-skin-blue Provides mplayer-skin So, "mplayer-skins" should have precedence over "mplayer-skin-blue" in providing "mplayer-skin" But that still doesnt fix the issue of gmplayer's control panel (and main window) being all black with no visible controls. I haven't got time now to test why this occurs, while I can happily use the "gnome- mplayer" frontend/package as an alternative... -- gmplayer does not find the default skin and no controls are visible after installing mplayer-skins or mplayer-skin-blue https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390398 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
