Ok, I checked and there is one skin in
/usr/share/mplayer/Skin, the Blue skin.
But it is looking for a default skin which isnt there.


I tried this: rpm -qV mplayer-gui
but it returned no results.

I went to DAG's website and downloaded then  installed
the mplayer-skins rpm. So now I have plenty of skins,
but still need the default.

Think I should remove and re-install mplayer-gui?
