[MPlayer-users] Skin not found.

Actually, I get the same message as him, since I compiled a newer CVS version. I
reinstalled "default" and "plastic" in my ~/.mplayer/Skin/ directory. But when I
start mplayer with "-gui", no gui comes, just the standard mplayer. And with
"-gui -skin plastic" I get Error: 'skin' is not a mplayer/mencoder option
command line: -skin

I find it quite strange. I'm using the CVS snapshot of 2002/04/28 on a slackware
8.0 with glib/gtk 1.2.10, and CVS from 2002/03/28 used to work.
