I make much use of VLC (from videolan.org) to watch digital television on my computer (my wife can watch whatever SHE likes on the big screen in the lounge :-) ) as well as watch DVD films. I also like to play some games included in Pysol. But neither vlc nor Pysol are available in Tumbleweed. Have you looked at

Yes, I have, Gour. But being "advised" of this, however, is not something I, or any new user of Tumbleweed, should have to go through and trawl through the web looking for repositories to make a version of an openSUSE distribution functional.
