I'm a brand new baby to linux Suse. I need someone (or more than one) to be patient with me and reply to all my questions in a simple straightforward way that I can understand!
Right off my first (and biggest) problem is getting my PC to play my DVD's (commercial ones mainly)- "TOTEM" the thing that opens when I try to play one, always tells me that I need to install extensions and plug-ins, and when I click "OK" takes me to a page with Windows Media Center!
What am I supposed to do?
I've managed to "create a DVD" which will only play back on my PC and not on my traditional DVD player, but watch my commercial DVD's - HOW....?
(I did say - be patient with me!)
