Hi, Martin:
First, thanks for the reply.
When I click the middle mouse button, I get the menu (simple, I suppose)
with the Open File item. Interestingly, it is a skinned menu (has the
same theme as the selected skin).
Right-clicking, however, has no effect -- strange! I just assumed that
the menu required the middle-click. I am using Gentoo 1.4, no
"experimental" packages, except perhaps MPlayer itself (1.0pre2).
All my other GTK applications seem to work fine, although I have both
1.2 and 2.0 installed -- don't know if that could be the reason.
I have tried erasing the .mplayer directory, actually (as well as moving
it), and it does not seem to correct it.
