Playing unencrypted DVDs is legal. But in order to play encrypted DVDs you need DeCSS which is supported by xine. But actually this is illegal in most countries. So you have to add it on your own. I proposed in an earlier post that Novell shall sell PowerDVD for Linux in an online store for some bucks. I would buy it.
I can't find it there, either, but it exists:

That is probably why they do not sell it anymore :). It does not understand PostScript nor does it work with HP PCL driver. I would not even had considered to buy such a printer. Sorry, just my opinion. I guess, it was one of the cheapest color laser printers available. Now, you know why. But nevertheless, ask HP for support. Usually they support Linux with their hardware. Especially the printer department offers drivers for most of their printers (including a toolbox to maintain inkjet printers).
is it normal, that when I go under Desktop/DisplayManager/DISPLAYMANAGER that there is no "entrance" in the dropdown? Just kdm, gdm, xdm, wdm, console.
Well, I could not get Entrance work at boot (starting it manually works, of course). Perhaps, it does if you choose console here and start the entrance init script at boot time. Else you could start E17 from kdm, too. Just choose it as your session in the bottom left corner.
You see it in both places. The stick is mounted to /media/usbstick by the hotplug daemon. And KDE shows all media under "media:/".
No, that's not true, the usbstick does not show up under media:/ ! Of course I thought as well, it would, but it seems as if it automounts it under /media because if you see it under media:/ it's not mounted yet (but as said, I don't see it there).
Oh, yes. It does show in both places. Wann have a screenshot: http://www.bertolo.ch/media.png (/media/ left, media:/ right). I plugged in the stick which opened konqueror and showed /media/USB_MEMORY. Now, I added media:/ in the right part of the window and did a screenshot.
Of course, but the wizard there breaks after page 2 of 5 when I want to configure apache2. Without giving an error, the window just closes. had that now more than once, that the Yast Window just closed *shrug.
Did not try it out. But you see that it should work. If it does not, open a bug track: http://www.opensuse.org/Submit_a_bug.
