Thank you very much for your response.
I've tried a number of variants and I am beginning to think that there's something odd about mplayer with xmonad. I've tried adding the following three lines, just in case (and based on your advise):
--------- [ className =? "MPlayer" --> (ask >>= doF . W.sink) , title =? "MPlayer" --> (ask >>= doF . W.sink) , resource =? "MPlayer" --> (ask >>= doF . W.sink) ---------
However it doesn't seem to change anything. It doesn't fail either. Xmonad recompiles config.hs just ok and it restarts without problems. But nothing seems to change.
Xprop tells my that "MPlayer" is the correct string for WM_NAME, WM_ICON_NAME and WM_CLASS:
8< <snip> 8<
In any case, thanks again for answering. Cheers :) -- Jesús Guerrero
Are you sure you don't have a rule in you xmonad.hs for floating mplayer? I just tested the line I sent you and it didn't work (i.e., sink mplayer) *before* I also removed every other reference to MPlayer. The sink rule didn't override the other rules for mplayer.
