There was (is?) some problem with vlc player and divx codecs;
http://mydebian.blogdns.org/?p=251
.. and my vlc didn't show any divx.
So, remove multimedia repository solved this problem.
As for now, I have only one packet from multimedia, and - according to
your suggestion - better way is to put these codecs manually in mplayer
folder.
