Hi.... Sorry but I'm a newbie to this list so I'm sorry if this has been covered before, but..... I have a p2 400, 192mb ram running i386 rh7 with kernel 2.2.16. Not wanting to get in to "who's the best window manager" wars, I'm using both Sawfish out the box, but usually KDE2.1beta2. Got everything else I want to work running properly with the exception of my dvd movie playback. I've been having a hunt around freshmeat etc for a definitive guide to getting this going with no luck - I can't be that unusual having a Hollywood card married up to a dvd drive, with my graphics output going through firstly an ATI rage pro 8mb then an old Voodoo 1 (aaaahhhhhh those were the days...) then in to the Hollywood card. I've got hugely confused with what I should do (GATOS project etc). Installed Xine. Sees .vob files on the dvd but just thrashes the disk when trying to play them with no error messages that I can find. Tried installing LiVid, but the install for OMI.... "She no work Mr Fawlty" when running the ./bootstrap. But have got mpeg2dec installed. <voice type="begging"> Can someone please take me outside and explain it to me like I'm three years old? </voice type="begging"> Please bear in mind I don't know C at all, although I try to compile from source if absolutely necessary although don't really understand what's happening..
