[CentOS] DVD support on CentOS 5.1

Hello out there!

 

Been around the block trying to get DVD support for Totem, but I keep
running into dead ends everywhere I go. Looking for CentOS 5.1-compatible
xine and xine-lib packages as that seems to be the answer, but the only ones
I find (like on DAG) seem to be just dead links or I get a message that the
mirrors are unavailable when I try to run the rpm.

 

Can anyone provide a link for rpm's that will provide DVD support on CentOS
5.1 32bit? I installed the Gstream rpm's so at least I have mp3 and mpeg
support, I just really want DVD support as well.

 

Many thanks in advance,

Manuel Alvarez

 

P.S. If anyone can chime in the question below I would greatly appreciate
it. I still have no idea on this one.  L

Subject: Wireless PCMCIA/PC Card for CentOS 5.1?

 

Hello everyone,

 

I would really like to get wireless working on my CentOS 5.1 install. I have
a LinkSys WPC54G (I guess version 1 since no version is listed) but
everything I've read indicates that this would be a nightmare for a Linux
newbie like myself. I got as far as NDISWrapper, but right off the bat I am
getting issues with KBuild and I guess my kernel source so I can't even get
as far as compiling NDISWrapper.

 

My question is mainly: Can anyone recommend a PC Card for a laptop that will
work on CentOS without NDISWrapper? If not, is there an idiot guide for
installing NDISWrapper on Centos 5.1?

 

Thanks and best wishes,

Manuel Alvarez
