mplayer should be available using your package manager. It will be in the menus under "install/remove software" (or something similar)

which linux are you using,
for ubuntu go to system, administration, Synaptic pakage manager, then hit search and search for mplayer, delect, ht ok and you are done
for suse go Kmenu, system, YAST, software management and search for mplayer

there will be a pakage manager somwhere
