Update to the new libxine1 rpms that are in PLF (add PLF medium with http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon), they are the rc2 and include the patch. Eric Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I don't want to do so, just checked if others do have similar problems. I don't want, because of: I can't reproduce it, since it is not my machine I can't give more information (not my machine) I can't find the problem, that caused the issues. Maybe we can find the place to make a paralell installation and iron the bugs out together with that friend. I'll see. Steffen Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Once I got k3b to point to the first reader and the first burner it works ok for me with a toshiba reader and a Toshiba DVD/CDRW, even thogh it shows 6 of each and I can't seem to remove any of the nonexistant drives.

Hi !

Works fine for me. Although on second thought it's with the stuff from
PLF, not just the stock version from MDK.
I've watched several DVDs and numerous clips from the web with it
without problems.
Basically if Xine works, Totem should work as well. It's mostly just a

As for MP3 files, I use Zinf, so I haven't tried Totem.
e) sound: He has an soundblaster soundcard. The default OSS driver
didn't work really good (crappy sound) , switching it to alsa did help
a lot here
I have what I believe is a SoundBlaster 128 which works Ok with both OSS
and Alsa. It might depend on the model.
Can't help with the other issues..

Hi ! I have installed 9.2 PP d/L on a friends machine and got some massive problems. He is now running 9.1 again, but i thought it might be worth to share experiences. a) totem crashed immediatly but was standard app for playing mp3's. I don't know why it crashed, does it run stable for anyone ? b) multiple lun: After adding the dvd-reader to ide-scsi, the machine got 7 readers and 7 burners = scd0 - scd13. According to him "options scsi_mod scsi_man_luns=1" in etc/modules.conf didn't helped. The reader is a toshiba, the burner a teac 512eb. c) acpi/powersaving: after a while w/o working on that machine suspend of the machine kicked in. Moving the mouse or pressing some keys didn't get it back, trying to reset didn't work either, trying the powerswitch, didn't work, unplug the power cord didn't work. Only resetting the board completly brought it back till the next suspend. In lilo.conf is acpi=ht (what does this mean ?). Its a MSI kt266 board with Athlon TB 1333. d) k3b 0.9 crashed immediatly (maybe because of the lot drives ?) 0.10.99 aka cvs started but hung on burning and took the Xserver with it. e) sound: He has an soundblaster soundcard.
