Nope. You need avifile (a recent CVS snapshot, preferably), and the Win32 codecs to start with, so head here: http://avifile.sourceforge.net/
And if too I wanne play divx, what can I must do, configure, intall to do that??
One application does this all, and other video formats (but not Real or Quicktime): MPlayer http://mplayer.sourceforge.net/ Read the documents and build it yourself; there are some really cool new features not included in what SuSE ships. -- -=|JP|=- Need a good geek?

Look again - it's must have been a while since you read the MPlayer pages - first the website is not at sourceforge anymore... it's at: http://www.mplayerhq.hu and second, it plays pretty much every video format under the sun, including RealPlayer and Quicktime (except anything encoded with the QT Sorenson codec). It also plays .asf and .asx (.wma and .wmv too) quite nicely... no need for separate players... just one to do it all. C. -- This is Linux country. If you listen carefully, you can hear Windows reboot...
