[help] playing DVD with Ubuntu

[William1713006271]

Hi there,

 

I'm trying Ubuntu 8.10. Got the CD from ubuntu website.

 

However, I can't play any mp3, dvd, vcd, etc.

 

I can't download via linux as I don't have internet connection on that PC.

 

I've been searching via Google like crazy only to be able to fix the mp3. So I still can't play any VCD or DVD.

 

Any help? Where should I download the stuff?

 

Regards,

William,

 

I find "GOM Media Player" very useful. It's quite versatile

 

Their Website "http://www.gomlab.com/eng/" states as below -

 

GOM software

Free, Simple, Light, It just plays!

GOM Media Player, GOM Encoder

Yes, i've read it before somewhere else. However, since I don't have internet on linux, I have to download from the repository one file at a time. Very unhuman :D

 

Thanks anyway.

Thanks for the info, i'll try it.

 

BTW. http://www.getdeb.net/ is very useful for installing ubuntu softwares.
