After installing libxine1, xine-ui and libdvdcss2 from packman (a five minute job) I have *never* failed to get dvd playing running, I really would like to know what it is that makes this so difficult for others

By the way I have been using linux for about five years and I got DVD's to play on Red Hat - several versions, and it was much easier than this (I've switched over - not a complaint). I know I havent asked any questions and I will probaly keep trying on my own, but as a desktop user (with no programming skills) I find this unnecessarily difficult. Having said this I would also like to say that Suse 9.1 has been a breeze to configure in virtually everything else. Gus.

Let's cut to the chase, here. :-) If you look at the top(?) of the page you will doubtless see 'install_dvdcss2' which is a script which d/l, compiles, installs libdvdcss2. This also leaves the resultant RPMs in a directory in your /usr/src, I believe, which can be later used in the case of a system crash or other catastrophe. It'd be good if people remembered the totality of how they installed the pkg. :-) I, for one, nearly forgot! -- "Yogi" CH Namasté Yoga Studio
