Hey 1) to fix the DVD issue. You need to add the http://debian-multimedia.org/ repo then sudo aptitude install libdvdcss2 Then DVD's should work in VLC or w.e you want to use. 2) flash player sudo aptitude install flashplayer-mozilla (should come in from d-m, this is the 32bit version of flash 10.1 +nspluginwrapper + the needed ia32libs) Regards, Angus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
