The expressions on their faces when they see how many ridiculous hoops I need to jump through to configure the Packman repository and then replace the codecs changes to exasperation
You mean go to a website like opensuse-community.org or opensuse-guide.org, click on a codec 1-click, then click next a couple of times, accept vendor change. Done. Or copy/paste a couple of zypper commands. For comparison have these people ever tried finding a codecpack for MS Windows without malware, to play anything other than wma/wmv/mp3/avi? (does Windows support anything else out of the box?) ;-) The patent issues with the codecs is quite different from the license "issues" with Adobe Flash or MS Fonts. Flash could even be included on the media again, but that would mean making restrictions on redistribution of the DVD again. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
