Title: HowTo: Full Multimedia Under Gnome
Description: Totem will play it all!
Version: SuSE 9.3 & Gnome v2.10


Question?

Do you prefer Gnome and want multi-media equal to KDE?


Here's the Solution:



Add packman to your YaST source list (Skip this if already done)
Open YaST and click Change Source of Installation
Click the Add button, select HTTP from the list
Enter "packman.iu-bremen.de" as the server, "suse/9.3" as the directory, click OK
Click Finished to exit



Add libxine1 and Totem to your system.
From the previous YaST menu click Install and Remove Software
Enter "xine" as the search criteria and click the Search button
From the result list check libxine1 and totem
Click Check Dependencies to make sure everything is ok and then Accept

• Note - You will notice a few additional but important files are installed such as the win32 codecs.

Click Finished when the install is complete



Install SuSE Multimedia packs
From the previous YaST menu click Online Update
Select your favorite mirror and click Next
From the patch list check Multimedia Option Pack 1 and Multimedia Option Pack 2
Click Accept to install



Install mozplugger rc file
Download and save the attached mozpluggerrc.txt file
Open a terminal session and login as super user

Copy the file to the /etc directory as follows
cp <your directory>/mozpluggerrc.txt /etc/mozpluggerrc

• Note - There is a space after the ".txt" and we are losing the "txt" extension in the process.

Close your current super user terminal session
Open a new terminal session as yourself
Delete the current firefox plugin registrations by entering

• Note - Firefox will rebuild this file with the new information supplied the next time it is loaded.

Exit as you are done!
Open Firefox and travel to apple.com and click on your favorite trailer and behold.

Download -> attached mozpluggerrc.txt∞
Cheers ...
