 Hmm... ok. It said so on the homepage so I thought
 that's why it didn't work for me.
 
 How do you start the movie?
 
 When I choose the .ifo-file an OK,
 the program crashes with the following info:
 
 $ xmovie
 XMovie (c) 2001 Adam Williams
 Deleted semaphore 196608
 Deleted Semaphore 229377
 Crash
 $ _
 
 What can be wrong? Is there any specific hardware
 that is needed for this program to work?
 
 I am trying this on my HP Omnibook 4150 with it's
 original DVD-player.

It's probably a problem with playing that particular file. I've found that
Xmovie will crash on some files for no apparent reason. Try using another player
like mplayer or xine.

Why is xmvovie shipping with Mandrake 8.0 when
it needs kernel 2.4.7 and Mandrake 8.0 is kernel 2.4.3?
