SUSE 10.0 - XMMS, Kaffeine, xine
Hey guys, Just before install SUSE 10.0, I spent one entire day trying to put XMMS to play MP3 and xine (with Keffeine) to play DVDs, without success!!! I did all procedures and hints that I found on the WEB about it. Before I start trying to do it again, I just want to know if some body is able to watch DVDs and play MP3 at SUSE. I have already done it in a very easy way with RedHat, Connectiva (Mandriva) and Kurumin (Knoppix). Thanks Daniel

Yes, I did. And ... in order someone to help you, why don't you just say what you have tried (procedures and hints)? -- -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny)
Hi Sunny,
Thanks for you response!
I installed XMMS from SUSE 10.0 CDs with the package manager.
When I opened a MP3 file at the first time, XMMS friezed all the system, and
I pressed the reset button (I think it was the first time I used reset with
Linux) :-)
Before the reboot I tried again and XMMS does not work, with the message at
console:
Gtk-WARNING **: invalid cast from `(unknown)' to `GtkObject'
Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkobject.c: line 1034 (gtk_object_set_data):
assertion `GTK_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed.
And so, I downloaded the most recent XMMS source, when I tried to run
configure, I got the error:
checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.2... no
*** The gtk-config script installed by GTK could not be found
*** If GTK was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the GTK_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to gtk-config.
configure: error: *** GTK+ >= 1.2.2 not installed - please install first ***
but all GTK stuff is there (devel packages too)
I installed xmms-lib-mad-1.2.10-79.pm.1.i586.rpm, but it's not working yet.
I found at google many people with the same problem!

And I've updated SUSE 10.0 too, using susewatcher, but it does not help.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I installed xine and Kaffeine with the package manager, from SUSE CDs.
I can see that SUSE 9.2 works, but many people have problems with
SUSE 10.0to play DVDs:

I installed libdvdcss-1.2.8-1.i386.rpm (that I've used with RedHat), and
w32codec-0.52-1.i386.rpm.
And I did the download of xine and Kaffeine source and compiled it, and I
got the same error at Kaffeine:
Loading of player part 'KaffeinePart' failed.
Details
All video drivers failed to initialize!
I'm still trying any thing that I find at google...
Any hint will be appreciated!!
Thanks in advance!

Heh, Mike and Kevan already answered :) I asked just to point you out that the source for suse problem solutions should be looked in the suse list archives first :) Also, check www.susewiki.org - there's a lot of usefull stuff. Cheers Sunny

Mike =========== Daniel, I only got XMMS to play mp3 after I removed all SuSE supplied XMMS files and installed all the packman files! I still think XMMS looks odd,

Here are the files I have installed: xmms-1.2.10-79.pm.1 faad2-xmms-plugin-2.0-0.pm.6 xmms-lib-1.2.10-79.pm.1 xmms-devel-1.2.10-79.pm.1 xmms-lib-mad-1.2.10-79.pm.1 I'm also guessing that your kaffeine is not working due to some crippled SuSE files as well, you'll just have to check that, as I haven't attempted a dvd movie yet with mine.

While it may have been 'extensively covered' what was said does not get me going re viewing DVDs on SuSE 10! I have followed Fred's list but it doesn't tell the whole story so for a 'newbie' as Daniel whatever suggestions he has received so far is not going to get him going re viewing DVDs on SuSE 10. Saying to him, "With the exception of libdvdcss everything is there [on packman.links2linux.org]" is simply a non-event and would cause him more angst. I cannot see anyting on packman which states, "This is what you need to view DVDs on SuSE 10". I have just written to Fred asking him a couple of questions about how he actually got 10 to play DVDs because one of the files he says he installs won;t install here because of a dependeny problem. Cheers. -- In a period of great joy and pleasure you are comforted by the thought that tragedy is just around the corner.
