1. Check System Settings->services and see if you can turn off some of the unwanted services. 2. I suggest you to install apt & synaptic as suggested in fedoranews.org website http://fedoranews.org/jorge/howto/howto02.shtml and then search for mplayer from the search menu. And then select and install. You are all set. 3. search for rdesktop and tsclient in synaptic and install. Raghu.
