I followed your directions and was able to add the GURU and Packman sources to YAST. I then did the search as you suggested and clicked each item marked with a blue check mark to get it re-updated. The update started and showed that it was getting updates from the CD and from packman. However, when I put in the DVD and select "Play DVD with Kaffeine", I still get the same error as before -- "The version of Xine (used with Kaffeine) has only a reduced set of supported codecs. It is not able to play DVDs. ...". I would think that maybe there's some additional package I need to install, but there are so many on that page that came up that I had no idea which ones to pick. The only one I selected was w32codec_all, thinking Microsoft might be involved in the security aspect of these DVDs and that that might fix it. Oh well, at least I now have packman installed as a source. Surely I must be close to getting this working. Any other ideas?
