I don't run KDE or GNOME, just an X manager and a command line.  I'll have to
figure out whether smplayer or some other front end will work in this
situation.  I can also try mplayer from debian.org instead of from debian-
multimedia.  Anyway, thanks for explaining what has happened.

Someone might want to update the manual, which still lists gmplayer.
