Howdy,
I am installing opensuse 12.2 on a client's computer, and he needs to be able to play DVDs. I followed the link
http://forums.opensuse.org/content/127-multimedia-restricted-formats-install...
that has you install packman and the repository for libdvdcss in order to play DVDs.
The regular packman repo is off line today for some reason, so I connected to the mirror in Taiwan and it did fine.
However, the repository at http://opensuse-guide.org/repo/12.2/ for libdvdcss is not connecting at all. I don't know if this is a problem on my end or on the network, but I am wondering if perhaps there are other mirrors available for this repository as well, just like the alternate packman mirrors?
Here is the response from the command line when I tried to install and refresh the repository:

So you see the host name is not being recognized for some reason.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
