An Mplayer question

["Walt L. Williams" <waltwilliams@intergate.com>]

Greetings all

I used Mplayer on the SuSE(10) system I used to use
to play mpg and avi movies. On my former system I merely 
had to do the install it and it was ready to use.  Mplayer 
on Debian (etch) seems to be broken.  What must I do 
to get Mplayer working on Debian? It gives me to 
following error:

Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device

Any suggestions on how to correct this?
