Reinstalled
mozilla-mplayer and got mplayerplug-in.so back in
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins but not the other shown below:
mplayerplug-in-gmp.so
mplayerplug-in-qt.so
mplayerplug-in-rm.so
mplayerplug-in-wmp.so
These may have come from a sid version but were still in
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
after purging and installing the stable versions. I even copied the
-wmp one to
~/.mozilla/plugins Ran mplayer on a Yahoo trailer with this result:

Not sure what this is telling me. Wajiged everything I knew and
apt-cached searched libaa.so.1; didn't show anything.
Hmm, something very borked. Look at this:
xxx@drizzen:/etc$ locate libaa
/usr/lib/libaa.a
/usr/lib/libaa.la
/usr/lib/libaa.so
/usr/lib/libaa.so.1
/usr/lib/libaa.so.1.0.4

I haven't any other suggestions than removing mplayer completely and
re-installing, or else try searching for libaa.so.*, iinstalling that
and creating the links.
Mine is a standard Sarge install.

Well, seems I have a little problem I don't know how to handle. I had
installed Sid versions of kmplayer, mozilla-mplayer, mplayer-386 and the
dependencies. Didn't like the way it worked, especially mplayerplug-in
and so I purged everything and reinstalled sarge versions. Now I don't
have libaa* sarge versions in apt-cache to install. I found a sid
version of
aalib1 which I purged also. Did an aptitude install -t sarge on each of the
libaa*.debs, picking up the dependencies. Still doesn't seem to be right.
locate libaa gives nothing like you show above.
ChatagnierL-Home:/usr/lib# locate libaa
/usr/lib/vlc/demux/libaac_plugin.so
/usr/lib/vlc/video_output/libaa_plugin.so
/var/cache/apt/archives/libaa1_1.4p5-28_i386.deb
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libaa1.list
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libaa1.postrm
ChatagnierL-Home:/usr/lib#
I did a 'find / libaa' to be sure the cache was updated.
However, If I do ls -l libaa* as root, I get:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 157342 Jul 4 07:40 libaa.a

or, if I do ls -l /usr/lib/libaa* as user or root, I get:

I haven't reinstalled mozilla-mplayer or mplayer-386 yet because I'm
still confused over
whether libaa* sarge versions are installed or not. Wonder why I get
different 'locate'
results than you.
