Hello SuSE people,
Looking for some xine advice.
Running SuSE 9.2 on a x86_64
Want to play DVD's. As you all know, the installed xine in Suse is broken for "legal reasons" Now I know I can go to Packman and get the "unbroken"version.Went there and looked. They offer libexine1-1_rc7-0.pm.0.i686.rpm.
I am thinking this is not what I want because I am running x86_64. Am I correct on that ? or will that work, (comments on another list stated that the 32 bit would work just as well) or should I be downloading the .src file and compile it.
I got my kaffine and xine stuff here. Playing dvds fine.
http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/suser-jmorris/suse92/ I know I did these: kaffeine-0.5-1rc2.x86_64.rpm libdvdcss2-1.2.8-3.x86_64.rpm libxine1-1_rc7-0.x86_64.rpm
The OP will need libdvdnav as well in order to have DVD menus, etc.
Seems I may have needed another rpm or to for some dependencies, but I can't remember for sure what they were. I do remember I got them from the same place. I put all the files in a directory by them selves and did a rpm -Uvh *.rpm Downloaded any dependency to the same directory and tried again. I don't remember uninstalling anything first, but I might have.
I do use apt-get for update my system. It links to ftp.gwdg.de, where is the apt-get repository (or at least, the biggest on). So, with apt-get and synaptic it will be really easy to resolve all dependencies. Cheers Sunny -- Get Firefox http://www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=affiliates&id=10745&t=85
