For running a program, you have to tell to kernel to load and execute a
binary file.
According to LSB specification, the binary files are in /bin, /sbin/,
usr/bin, /usr/sbin, /usr/local/bin or /usr/local/sbin.
So you simply have to look at all files in that rpm for finding the
binary files.
For doing this you should use rpm -ql mplayer | grep bin, and then open
it from shell or the execute command gui in your desktop enviroment.
