Did they actually install?  I would have thought rpm would have 
complained about wrong architecture and missing dependencies.  Did you 
install with force, or how did you install them?  If they are installed, 
rpm -e <package name> will uninstall them.

He didn't.  x86_64 packages are for the c package, which is a x86_64 
version on MPlayer.
