Hi to all...
I have a little problem, I want to install mplayer and play from command line without X. The howto tells that is possible to install mplayer without xfree. 
The flags in /etc/make.conf are: USE='-X -kde -gnome' when I emerge -p mplayer there are also X11 libraries and kde-base/arts in the list of packages. What to do? I have an nvidia card, is possible with this one?

Yes, it's possible to use mplayer without X. There's at least four ways of doing this(each are -vo options):
fbdev - If you compiled kernel with framebuffer support, you can use this.
aa - Play movies with aalib in ascii format. Cool, but not really useful.
svga - Play movies with svgalib.
ggi - Play movies with libggi.
You can find more info on these in Video Output Devices section in MPlayer doc.

Add -arts to your USE flags.

yes...compiled the framebuffer support...used a lot of flags in the USE settings, tryed also:
USE='-X -kde -gnome -arts -dga -gtk -gtk2 -opengl' ...and many other configurations but in the deps there were always:
X11-base/xfree***
X11-base/opengl-update***
I followed the howto, I set up the MTRR and the result is the same: need xfree...
mmm...something forget...  |

This is the output of my emerge mplayer -pv
| Code: | | [ebuild N ] media-video/mplayer-0.90_rc5 -dga +oss +jpeg -3dfx -sse -matrox +sdl +X +svga -ggi +oggvorbis +3dnow +aalib -gnome +xv +opengl +truetype -dvd +gtk +gif -esd +fbcon +encode -alsa +directfb +arts |
Look through that list and for each thing you don't need support for, take it out in your use flags. Xv for instance is probably dependent on Xfree because it's an Xfree video driver. Opengl is also in there so take that out. Try that and see if it helps.
