Playing unencrypted DVDs is legal. But in order to play encrypted DVDs
you need DeCSS which is supported by xine. But actually this is illegal
in most countries. So you have to add it on your own. I proposed in an
earlier post that Novell shall sell PowerDVD for Linux in an online
store for some bucks. I would buy it.

That is probably why they do not sell it anymore :). It does not
understand PostScript nor does it work with HP PCL driver. I would not
even had considered to buy such a printer. Sorry, just my opinion. I
guess, it was one of the cheapest color laser printers available. Now,
you know why. But nevertheless, ask HP for support. Usually they support
Linux with their hardware. Especially the printer department offers
drivers for most of their printers (including a toolbox to maintain
inkjet printers).

Well, I could not get Entrance work at boot  (starting it manually
works, of course). Perhaps, it does if you choose console here and start
the entrance init script at boot time. Else you could start E17 from
kdm, too. Just choose it as your session in the bottom left corner.

Oh, yes. It does show in both places. Wann have a screenshot:
http://www.bertolo.ch/media.png (/media/ left, media:/ right). I plugged
in the stick which opened konqueror and showed /media/USB_MEMORY. Now, I
added media:/ in the right part of the window and did a screenshot.

Did not try it out. But you see that it should work. If it does not,
open a bug track: http://www.opensuse.org/Submit_a_bug.
