It turns out the so-called "one click install" really means "one click if you're running the latest version of the OS labeled green and we can't be bothered to check properly". Mplayer is built for every version of 2006, but maemo.org sure ain't gonna help you.

In any case you could try to either download and install hildon-fm1 from http://repository.maemo.org/pool/gre...29-1_armel.deb
or possibly add
http://repository.maemo.org
gregale
free
to your repository list. Or maybe there's another mplayer for OS2006 as well. But as the date of that hildon-fm1 in the link is actually 2006 it just might work..
Serge's link to the Mistral repositories works. I just downloaded it to my memory card, installed it and badda-bing, badda-boom! mplayer.
