SuSE breaks Xine to not play any DVD: mrl.  Doesn't matter if you have
libdvdcss/libdvdread installed, or if the DVD you're trying to play is
unencrypted.  This is as of SuSE 9.3, the last time I installed that OS.


It just pops up an error box that says you can't play DVDs on Linux.

Kevin - does 10 still ship with non-DVD playing Xine?
