[MPlayer-users] 0.60 vs. 0.90-pre10

Where can I find version 0.60? 0.90-pre10 is still useless with my DVD:

  Debian woody, kernel 2.4.17, libc-2.2.4,
  XFree86 4.1.0.1/fvwm/NVIDIA-1.0-3123,
  Leadtek Gforce4 ti-4600, SoundBlaster Live Platinium,
  Soundworks amplifier and AC3 hardware decoder (SPIDF feed)

Problem:

  Only software zoom works, without it picture is narrow with 16:9
  source (I don't know if 0.60 used soft zoom as default, but I didn't
  need to give any option or change config to have aspect right)

  If I seek to next chapter the detected 16:9 movieaspect is lost and
  I get garbled 4:3 aspectratio (in a new window); works ok if I give
  16:9 aspect on command line (0.60 worked right).

  If I go to full screen mode (press f), it opens a window so that
  (in fvwm) I got to place and click it with mouse (0.60 worked right);
  also it is not the topmost window: the pane selector is on the top.
  (was right in 0.60).

  Every time I seek to next or previos chapter it closes the window
  and opens a new one (that to my anoyance I got to place and click with
  the mouse).

  If I seek chapters back and forth it goes every time to different place
  (again worked right in 0.60).

  Still I can't put /dev/dsp in hwac3 mode (could be problem in
  my kernel or em10 driver; my hardware is ok: spidf sound works in
  win98) but 0.90-pre10 also hangs (0.60 just reports: no sound).

  When device is not /dev/dvd, why do I need to give -dvd-device to
  make it recognize that it is dvd? 0.60 seems to asumme so when -dvd
  option was given.

  Why is -gui option deleted?

Sad to say but a lot of things seems to have broken since 0.60. I'm sure 
there are many improvments, but to my DVD usage I couldn't find any, so 
I would like to go back to 0.60.

I accidentally deleted my 0.60. And now I can't find it. Where gould I 
get it?
