You may recall the issue here. On a whim, I overwrote the SuSE10.0 install with ubuntu... I'm not trying to start a flame war, but damn does that distro rock.
Anyway, there was no 'easy' tool setting up a NFS share, so I made it up and just edited the fstab file, and mounted the share... Same problem... I resigned myself to having to just use a MONSTER cache, or figure out how to install a much earlier version of mplayer. I went about my business, but managed to trash the X86config file while trying to install the nvidia drivers... Since I had no real data, and it was trivial to install crap, I just reinstalled.
I went out on a limb this time, when setting up the NFS share, and actually went googling. I found this. If you take the time to RTFA, you'll not they instruct you to install both portmap and nfs-common and make sure they are running. I did this, and then mounted the share.
MPLAYER NOW WORKS PERFECTLY WITH THE NFS SHARES.
I'm guessing that SuSE10.0 didn't get the memo about having their NFS client tool ensure that portmap and nfs-common are installed and running prior to editing the fstab table.
