Does Supermount work with DVD-ROM's under Linux? I installed an Acer IDE
DVD-ROM today and it made things go *extremely* slow until I commented out
the /etc/fstab entry for the device. The GIMP hung and all kinds of other
unpleasant things happened. Now I've got it so I have to manually mount
it and it seems to be ok. Any idea why this might be?
Also, how do I get to view DVD movies under Linux? I looked at the LiViD
page and it's talking about patching the kernel for DVD fs support and
whatnot, or else using a development kernel with it built in. Any
suggestions on the best way to go about it? I've always been a little
reluctant to mess with the kernel and I don't really like the idea of
patching it. Is there a module or something I can just slap in there?
Any info would be appreciated. I'd like to get this running under Linux
so I can show off to a few Windows users... =)
