Hi there! My name is Pat and I'm moving from ubuntu to DreamLinux. I am unable to play dvd's. I get the following message from synaptic when trying to install:
W: Failed to fetch
http://ngsys.eti.br/debian/./libdvdcss2_1.2.9-0.0_i386.deb 404 Not Found
terminal cannot find it either. Any help is appreciated!
Which version of Dreamlinux? Dreamlinux 3.5 has Easyinstall which will allow you to install all the multimedia bits. You can also get libdvdcss from the Debian multimedia repos.
For Dreamlinux 3.5 make sure this is in your /etc/apt/sources.list:
For lenny (stable) alpha, amd64, armel, hppa, i386, ia64, mipsel, powerpc and sparc packages
add in your /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org lenny main
or
deb ftp://ftp.debian-multimedia.org lenny main
or
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org stable main or
deb ftp://ftp.debian-multimedia.org stable main
For Dreamlinux 4.0 use this one:
For squeeze (testing) alpha, amd64, armel, hppa, i386, ia64, mipsel, powerpc and sparc packages
add in your /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org squeeze main
or
deb ftp://ftp.debian-multimedia.org squeeze main
or
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main or
deb ftp://ftp.debian-multimedia.org testing main
Be sure to click reload in Synaptic or use sudo apt-get update in a terminal. Then you should be able to install libdvdcss.
Hope that helps.
