	Interesting.  I've installed, de- and re-installed mplayer
	several times.  Noprompting.  Anyway, I cp'd over a generic
	ttf file and the error dialog went away.

	I still see a strange error popup about AF_INET6 and 
	not-being-able-to-connect-to fooo.com, but it seems like 
	a bogus err, because I can see the data flowing over my
	router.  

	Can you suggest an entire [g]mplayer [XXXX] http:// 
	example?  Or do you use mplayer to watch downloaded files?
	(Once, last fall, I had mplayer working for a few seconds;
	then it quit and coredumped.... [??])

	Apologies.  But a good percentage of my spam is from the
	slimeballs who abuse the biz domain.  (I restrain myself:-)

	Bottom line, thanks for your input,
