## 2.3. What about the GUI?

The GUI needs GTK 1.2.x or GTK 2.0 (it isn't fully GTK, but the panels are), so `GTK` (and the devel stuff, usually called `gtk-dev`) has to be installed. You can build it by specifying `--enable-gui` during `./configure`. Then, to turn on GUI mode, you have to execute the gmplayer binary.

As MPlayer doesn't have a skin included, you have to download at least one if you want to use the GUI. See Skins at the download page. A skin should be extracted to the usual system-wide directory `$PREFIX/share/mplayer/skins` or to the user specific directory `$HOME/.mplayer/skins` and resides as a subdirectory there. MPlayer by default first looks in the user specific directory, then the system-wide directory for a subdirectory named `default` (which simply can be a link to your favourite skin) to load the skin, but you can use the `-skin `myskin`` option, or the `skin=myskin` config file directive to use a different skin from the `skins` directories.
