Out of the box, Xandros is pretty good..
However, I've found the default installation of realplayer-full (aka
Realplayer One) breaks when you install mplayer/libdvdcss from the
Marillat site. (deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ unstable main)
Also, mplayer-586 doesn't work out of the box for me.
To fix:
Install the free Realplayer
http://www.real.com/freeplayer/?rppr=freshmeat and it's then sweet. I
don't know WHY Realplayer One breaks. Tried removing and reinstalling,
no joy. The older one can live with mplayer though.. 8^)==
For mplayer-586, I needed to edit the /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf. Xandros
uses OSS, not ALSA.
Replace the ao=alsalx with ao=oss
Hope this helps someone.. 8^)==
