that stuff.

Hey,
When you're done installing SUSE Linux 10.1 OSS, your desktop system is 
not complete. You might still need support for Java programs, Adobe 
Flash animations, PDFs, and RealPlayer and Windows Media Video files. 
You may also want to add support for playing DVD videos on your 
computer, and to try out the new XGL graphical toys. Here's how to 
effectively make SUSE Linux 10.1 into the perfect desktop OS.

You will be able to play all restricted formats..

Subject: [opensuse] Gstreamer codec

Hello!

I have a problem with SuSE 10.1 (Gnome). I can not play several
multimedia files (mpeg, wma, etc...) for example in Totem. Which
packages should I install, and where can I find these packages? (The
computer has no internet connection, so i must download them, and after
install)
Thank you for the help!
regards,

Andreas,
You're missing the point. Microsoft have been making war against the
Linux community for years. Novell have elected to make a separate peace
with Microsoft. This makes Novell no longer part of the community.

It's a betrayal, and one which cannot easily be forgiven or forgotten.

I appreciate you're unhappy that people are using this mailing list in a
way that you regard as OT. Unfortunately, there is no better place to
express our feelings, so you're going to have to live with it for a while.

By accepting 'patent coverage', Novell are giving credence to FUD that
users of Linux are in danger of being sued for patent violations.
I am disgusted, I am  changing distros,  and I am sorry for the people
who work at SuSE,  so that's what I wrote: who are you to tell me I
shouldn't?

To all the people at SuSE,
I know this isn't your fault, and I'm sorry I have to stop using your
excellent work. I'm sad to have to change to another distro, I've been a
fanboy since SuSE 8.0, but this deal is just disgusting.

Best of luck

Tony Pott
