It would be nice to somehow inform the user about those issues when he first tries to open media which is potentially illegal to access or endangered with patent issues. A really nice suggestion in this direction can be found in this article: http://chabada.sk/better-desktop/ (see section "Easy multimedia codecs installation") Another thing would be a tool such as Easy Ubuntu for fedora: http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ IMHO the non GPL-stuff must stay out of fedora because it restricts the freedom of a certain user, but it must be in the users power to get the problematic media up and running without much hassle. - -- Christian Nolte key : http://www.noltec.org/christian-nolte.asc or : www.keyserver.net - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The Information Revolution will be fought on the command line. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFENSt0CNjA0nfhW7wRApsYAJ9o5p9i5BJXLPQkmr1M/n99wCsI0QCfeCs8 e4itk0SNV2+ExXqWE9JTT4c= =+1FR -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
