I just wanted to say that I am a very happy linux user! I finally got dvd playback (even encrypted) to work under Linux. Not only that, but on the AMD K6-450 platform and the ppc G4. So I am doubly pleased. I had already resolved myself to make that a #1 priority at the upcoming installfest, but I will have to devise a more devious plan. Anyway I used ogel to get it to work. I was much easier on the ppc, because I 1) had the experience of the i586 and 2) it was smoothe like butter on the ppc. (even the fps is not yet so good on the ppc.) Which raises the question "why am I using the frame buffer driver on this thing?" A "Because I wreck X evertime I try and muck with it." that's right. Anyway the ogle/oms developers wanted me to express their deepest concerns for those of you still running oms. For in their words "It is dead" or "It is not dead, but merely sleeping" -- irc OPN #livid here is the starting url.
