Hm xine played dvd's in the past under gentoo, well I can play mp3's. But okay, I will take a look at PowerDVD and archived threads, true I missed that, I didn't think, there was a big issue with playing DVD's legally... > > Power Management is partially > > working: The light get's darker when I pull the plug BUT the cpu > > clockspeed is always on 598MHz, which can only be a bad joke.

I can't find it there, either, but it exists: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-Color_LaserJet_1500 > > Next point is that I can't get entrance or enlightenment to work. under > > gentoo I could easily change under /etc/rc.conf which displaymanger was > > used.

Thank you is it normal, that when I go under Desktop/DisplayManager/DISPLAYMANAGER that there is no "entrance" in the dropdown? Just kdm, gdm, xdm, wdm, console. > There is another artwork thread here. If you do not like the SUSE theme, > use another or uninstall "kdebase3-suse".

Of course I thought as well, it would, but it seems as if it automounts it under /media because if you see it under media:/ it's not mounted yet (but as said, I don't see it there). > > The SuSE watcher seems to be for windows XP migrants :) but oh well, nice > > to have... > > Well I think it is quite useful not to check for updates manually.

Without giving an error, the window just closes. had that now more than once, that the Yast Window just closed *shrug.
