Color me dumb, but where on the 'net can I get this stuff? One reason that I've used SuSE since 1998 is that SuSE always had everything I needed on the set of disks, now the DVD.
But just yesterday I got my DSL 2000 up and running, so I need to learn how and where to get this stuff. Up to now not being able to see wmv files didn't matter because I could not afford to d/l them.
BTW, I got FreeNet DSL2000 and its really neet.
Thanks All!

It's illegal for SuSE to ship the codecs, that's why you have to install them off the net rather than off your DVD. If you just want support for .wmv, you can just get the w32codecs for xine or gstreamer. If you want to play dvd's get libdvdcss which should bring the w32codecs along with it.
And he asked where to get them. Not what SUSE doesn't provide. Jim, they can be gotten at packman.links2linux.de. Look in multimedia. Libdvdcss is a bit harder, but google is your friend.
