It is probably talking about ~/.mplayer/config.  List out what is in there. 
  My config is rather simple and only contains:

vo=xv,x11
ao=arts,esd,oss

It is a bit early for me to search the docs to see what a vo-x11 should 
contain.  So, you may want to search or you can try to comment out the line 
and see what results.

Need more zzz's  :-)
