[Eug-lug] Linux and Robotics

[Allen Brown]

I am running Kubuntu Dapper.  I've never found a deb package
for mplayer or win32codecs.  I have installed kmplayer and
w32codecs, but that doesn't seem to help.

OK, I just installed xine, and it displays the clip.
I did a few more random package installs.  The key seems
to be totem-xine.  Now totem can view them.

But I really would like to have these movies translated
to a more standard format.  Is there no way for the Windoze
user to do that?  Is there no way for me to do it?

  We don't have any censorship. If we did, I couldn't say XXXX or XXXX..
