Repository problem
Posts: 13
I'm trying to get a DVD to work, and as I understand it, I need libdvdcss2 for the player to read the disc properly. Problem is, the two repositories listed below don't appear to work; they contain the following error messages. Could someone point me in the right direction? BTW, Xine will display the FBI warning on the DVD and then the program crashes. Should it be able to do this on an encrypted disc? Or could it be the program is not menu-compatible? I'm confused.
ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/dists/unstable/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz: Unable to fetch file, server said 'Can't open /debian-marillat/dists/unstable/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz: No such file or directory ' [IP: 62.4.17.14 21]

I just changed the item in the line in sources.list for the mplayer repository from 'unstable' to 'etch' and everything worked OK.
You can also search for libdvdcss2 in google and either download an RPM and alien it or get the deb and install that. (that's what I did previously before I found out about the repository bit)
