Please, what's the reason to not include mplayer in SuSE distibution? I was happy to see it in 8.1 and frustrated to miss it in 9.0 Thanks. Marek

Kaffeine was most likely chosen over MPlayer because being a KDE-based GUI it gives a more seemless look to SUSE's KDE desktop. It doesn't mean you can't install MPlayer yourself, though. http://packman.links2linux.de/?action=128 ...to download and install...

I guess SuSE got too many complaints- for legal reasons, they can only ship a broken version. If you want precompiled packages, get it from packman: http://packman.links2linux.de/?action=128 Charles -- Linux is obsolete (Andrew Tanenbaum)
