DVD set-up help
I'm trying to figure out DVD playback. I have 6.2 w/KDE-lite. I can play audio CD's on the DVD. I have installed and want to use VLC. I'm trying to figure out/distill exactly what the Handbook wants me to do in the first paragraph: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/video-playback.html I can do this: add the following lines to /etc/devfs.conf: link acd0 dvd link acd0 rdvd How to do this? Yes, I can chmod...but exactly what do I do here? Additionally, DVD decryption, which requires invoking special DVD-ROM functions, requires write permission on the DVD devices. --- What is the exact command? To enhance the shared memory X11 interface, it is recommended that the values of some sysctl(8) variables should be increased: kern.ipc.shmmax=67108864 kern.ipc.shmall=32768 -- Thanks, The end result I want is to be able to play movies. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I can't answer all your specific questions, but all I had to do to play movies was this: 1. Install vlc, which you've done; 2. As root, mount the dvd; 3. As ordinary user, run vlc like vlc dvd:///dev/acd1 Many thanks, I just had to mount the DVD device as root - like you said. I have DVD movie/video playback now. Thanks. My ordinary user has write access and group ownership on the DVD drive device file, but I don't know if that is necessary. Also I have those sysctls set like so: kern.ipc.shmmax: 33554432 kern.ipc.shmall: 8192 ...again, I'm not sure how necessary that is.

Audio CD help
Hi, This is probably going to basic stuff, sorry to bother. I can not get Audio Cds to play. I'm using KDE. During sysinstall FreeBSD accesses CDs OK. It's acd0 and is a DVD-RW.

Second Question: Why would you NEED to startx as root? I must be
very new or something cause I dont understand the point in starting X
as root.

keep the discussion in this thread to solving my X config. problem.
