DVD Player

Well, finally bit the bullet and got Mandrake 9.1 (KDE) installed on me laptop (PIII 60/128mb/12Gb/DVD etc.).

What application can I use to view DVD's on this beast?

Sorry for such a lame question :roll:

My own favourite is Xine. You can also use MPlayer, Ogle, Kplayer, Totem.

You might find you need to install a library called libdvdcss as most dvds are encrypted sort of thing :)

Mandrake 9.1 comes with Xine I believe?

Groovy! Where can I find this libdvdcss you speak of?

I tried Xine and it told me to bog off but probably because I don't have this oojamawhatsit.tar.gz.zzzzzz you mention.

Good luck

Good luck as in "Good Luck (You'll need it!)" :cry: or "Good Luck" as in "Tally Ho Old Chap". :lol:

Nah, good luck as in Have fun - Be productive 8)

MaverickUK, you might find the Penguin Liberation Front useful for Mandrake rpms that aren't included with the distro.
