Is it not possible to get the PPC versions from the MacOS, as they cover about all the formats, don't they. Maybe the Mac doesn't use codecs? Surely there must be a way to remedy this problem? I admit I haven't done much research in this area, since I lost most of my interest in the PPC when SuSE dropped their boxed set. Since 10 has renewed interest in the PPC, so has my interest climbed in having a PPC machine to run it on! ;o)
Hopefully many others using PPC will become interested again with the new SuSE version available. I would also like to ask if there will be a boxed set released again or is that on the back burner at the moment until interest in PPC is gauged with this release? I'm hoping many PPC owners will pitch in to help Packman's site become PPC file full, just as it is with x86 stuff now. Already looking for that new G5 system to set up on. Thanks SuSE! end of line Lee --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
