Hey guys, Just before install SUSE 10.0, I spent one entire day trying to put XMMS to play MP3 and xine (with Keffeine) to play DVDs, without success!!! I did all procedures and hints that I found on the WEB about it. Before I start trying to do it again, I just want to know if some body is able to watch DVDs and play MP3 at SUSE. I have already done it in a very easy way with RedHat, Connectiva (Mandriva) and Kurumin (Knoppix). Thanks Daniel
Yes.. Do it all the time. packman is your friend.

With the exception of libdvdcss everything is there.

Check the archives of this very list for the last two weeks. It's a subject that has been extensively covered :-)
While it may have been 'extensively covered' what was said does not get me going re viewing DVDs on SuSE 10! I have followed Fred's list but it doesn't tell the whole story so for a 'newbie' as Daniel whatever suggestions he has received so far is not going to get him going re viewing DVDs on SuSE 10. Saying to him, "With the exception of libdvdcss everything is there [on packman.links2linux.org]" is simply a non-event and would cause him more angst. I cannot see anyting on packman which states, "This is what you need to view DVDs on SuSE 10". I have just written to Fred asking him a couple of questions about how he actually got 10 to play DVDs because one of the files he says he installs won;t install here because of a dependeny problem. Cheers. -- In a period of great joy and pleasure you are comforted by the thought that tragedy is just around the corner.
