Downloaded linuxpackages mplayerplug-in 3.31 and 2.66 and both are gtk2 
and firefox 1.5 that we have is gtk1.

I cannot find the older source code for mplayer plugin and the most recent 
code requires mplayer 1.0rc2 or higher - does this mean source code or a 
compiled version of mplayer 1.0rc2?  We have mplayer 1.0pre7 uclibc (and I 
compiled 0.93 glibc 2.2.5 that does not do ogg or video).

mplayer binary can be used directly instead of the plugin by just telling 
firefox/seamonkey to use it to open files of type ram.
