Don't know the hardware details. If you aren't having problems burning CDs then I doubt that ide-scsi is an issue. Due to legal concerns in the USA and Germany over proprietary codecs and license fees, openSUSE does not support mp3 and encrypted DVD playback from a normal install. Have you added the packman repository to your install? If not, then you need to do that and load all the video players and codecs from there. See if this helps for adding a repository in YaST: __ http://en.opensuse.org/Additional_YaST_Package_Repositories#Packman and then choose a mirror near you. In Konqueror I just mouse over the first USA mirror, right click, Copy Link Address and then go to YaST, Software, Installation Source. Click Add, HTTP, Next and in the Server Name either middle-click or Ctrl+V the copied link. Delete the http://. Then highlight the first slash after the server name and domain through the end of the directory list. Cut+Paste that into the Directory On Server area and delete the leading and trailing slashes. Click Next. Any errors at this point are usually due to not getting rid of ftp:// or http:// in the Server Name and leading and trailing slashes in the Directory on Server areas. Or the server is down, misconfigured, in the middle of a mirror process, etc. __ This is just packman. There are many more repositories available. Use the Search option in YaST's Software Management. Try dvd, k3b, etc. the packman packages usually have a pm in the file name. You can also use the Installation Sources option in YaST's Software Management to see what each repository has available. You'll also have to find libdvdcss and install that. http://lists.opensuse.org/cgi-bin/search.cgi?advanced=yes is great way to search the list.
