    Hi - Your question doesn't really belong in the coffee lounge; but hey, I'm not your dad!

    I think Xandros uses the Debian package management system, so I strongly recommend learning all about that before trying to install MPlayer. From a terminal it would be something like:

    su
    <enter_password>
    apt-get install mplayer

    Or you could use an apt GUI tool like Synaptic.
