What distro can I download that has these features?

video playback(DVD,Play all streaming media out of the box)
mp3 playback
nvidia drivers

i already tried xandros, suse, and mandrake

i managed to do all these things, except play all streaming media with konqueror or mozilla, all gave me some problems, except xandros

just wondering if there are any free distros who has these features included.

suse gave me a hard time with video playback

mandrake with streaming video

xandros is fine but its a bit outdated and u cant really upgrade it without something braking

Did you try the Mandrake PowerPacks, or try installing the plugins/codecs for the media players?

It's not free.
I'm not sure about the Nvidia support, there is some kind.
You may want to check the required specs.
And I have not tried it.

Mandrake 9.2 is half price right now.
And they do have the nVidia tuned kernels on the update mirrors if you already have Mandy.
The DVD stuff is a copyright thing, but P.L.F. http://plf.zarb.org/packages.php has some answers.
