I thought I had all the non-oss stuff like codecs and vlan installed and got K3B to work, but Kaffeine with a US commercial DVD only plays the DVD's copyright notice, in both English & French, then stops, pretending there is nothing to play. Help!
Wouldn't it be something like this:

?
The image has been removed from the link, pity. It's a scam, possing as a "you need this codec to watch this movie". But you shouldn't see it on a comercial dvd, so maybe you see something different.
NAICT, those links are exclusively about windoz and/or downloaded video files. This is about OpenSUSE 10.2 and store-bought DVDs that work fine in a standalone DVD player. I tried two more and get similar results. On the second tried, it never does the copyright notice, going straight to telling me "The source can't be read. Maybe you don't have enought rights for this, or source doesn't contain data (e.g. no disk in drive). (Error reading from DVD.)" Logged in user is in audio & video groups in /etc/group.
Hmmm. MPlayer works. I guess Kaffeine for 10.2 must be broken for this purpose, though it works for DVDs I recorded off TV. -- "Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry." Ephesians 4:26 NIV

Did you add the PackMan repo Felix?
