Hi all, Has anyone gotten their G3 or G4 iBook's DVD player to play DVD movies under any flavor of Linux? (Running any Linux based DVD playing software)
Here is where I'm at so far: I got totem-xine installed onto my G3 600 Mhz "Dual-USB" iBook running PowerPC Ubuntu Linux (Debian based distro). My video card is an ATI Rage Mobility 128 8MB 2x AGP. It took the following deb packages to be installed before it would allow me to install totem-xine: libgpg-error0_1.0-1_powerpc.deb libdvdcss2_1.2.8-0.0_powerpc.deb libopencdk8_0.5.5-8_powerpc.deb libdvdplay0_1.0.1-6_powerpc.deb libstartup-notification0_0.7-1_powerpc.deb libgcrypt11_1.2.0-4_powerpc.deb libtasn1-2_0.2.10-3_powerpc.deb libgcrypt7_1.1.90-9_powerpc.deb libgnutls11_1.0.16-9_powerpc.deb totem-xine_0.99.16-1_powerpc.deb dpkg also required me to uninstall totem-gstreamer. Once installed, the DVD video/audio playback is very choppy (skipping a lot of video frames) and audio is slightly out of sync with the video. I know that DVDs played fine when OS 9 was installed on this computer. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks.
