Isn't DivX a program for playing DVD's under Linux? BArt

The best I know of is: http://www.videolan.org/ I don't think it's on the SuSE distro but it compiled for me out of the box on 7.1. The only problem with it that I've found is that it's a bit resource hungry. My desktop plays DVDs fine but my 650mhz laptop can't quite do it without chopping a bit. xmovie works OK on the laptop but doesn't have a decent interface.
