Go to http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3?stat...srodzaj=3&dist[]=48
and download xmms-lib-mad(your arch).
install it (be sure that you have xmms installed first)
and now you can play your mp3 using xmms

Only Real Player will play mp3's in a default SuSE-10.2.

As already noted in this thread, one way to "upgrade" the other SuSE-10.2 players, such that they play mp3, is to replace the Novell/SuSE packaged xine, with the Packman packaged xine, and then select the xine engine in your openSUSE player(s). You can read more about it here:
