Just a bit off the topic here,
Xine does funny things with certain older dvds on of them is it adjusts
the screen area and doesnt restore it so you find your screen pans when
you push the mouse pointer to the edges.
So I tried installing mplayer via download [I cant get yum to work
because of the companies firewall] and there were too many dependancy
threads so I gave up downloading mplayer.
So I download Gxine instead and problem solved one file one install,
Pretty cool.

I did look. This is way over my head, I'm a tinkerer with no formal
programming experience.
I don't call finding and correcting a couple of bugs in USB storage back
in my Vaio C days "experience". Nor is compiling pgaccess for Mac OS X.
Those are my two claims to fame, period.
The reverse engineering guys are doing a good job but they aren't very
organised - there a bits and pieces all over and it is difficult to know
what is needed. I guess I could figure out what goes where with a couple
of pointers hint hint...
