That's pretty much the procedure to install MPlayer on ANY operating  
system. Even Mac OS. The controls are also the exact same as the ones  
covered in documentation.

And, unless we're dealing with problems in the OS, or just a  
bootstrap install, the only packages you're really going to need is  
X11 (possibly the Dev packages), maybe GTK (if you want the GUI).  
Packages that are recommended (including the Dev packages) are LAME,  
LibDVDCSS, LibDVDRead, XviD, the Essential Codec Package, and maybe  
TwoLame or TooLame. LibDV is required if you plan to have anything to  
do with DV, and x264 is useful, but I think you can only get it from  
source.

Pretty much, you managed to do a by-the-book installation of MPlayer.  
Congratulations, glad it's working for you!
