After installing mplayer-skins
# aptitude install mplayer-skins

Now a symlink named "default" pointing to "clearplayer" directory is created

$ ls -l /usr/share/mplayer/skins/
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2009-09-11 14:44 blue
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2009-10-01 08:14 clearplayer

Perhaps "mplayer-skins" should be a dependency for "mplayer" package instead of "mplayer-skin-blue"

Deleted ~/.mplayer directory and restarted gmplayer from shell, but still gmplayer's control panel is all black (no controls are visible)
