What are the Gnome alternatives? The Gnome Totem is a joke which cannot deal with playing DVDs from folder of HDD or *.iso file while Kaffeine works perfectly like a Windoze WinDVD ;-) Linux better stick with its original Desktop like KDE because trying to emulate that Windoze with things like Gnome is a total disaster... >> >> > >> >> > I guess the BSD is also KDE-like and not adapting the mess of Gnome... >> >> >> >> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VLC_media_player >> >> >> >> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMPlayer >> > >> > Only VLC can do DVD menus from folder (VIDEO_TS) and none of them can do >> > DVD *.iso >> >> So what?

There are also stand-alone utilities. You are too ingrained in the 'DozeWorld. -- Well, anyway, I was reading this James Bond book, and right away I realized that like most books, it had too many words. The plot was the same one that all James Bond books have: An evil person tries to blow up the world, but James Bond kills him and his henchmen and makes love to several attractive women. There, that's it: 24 words. But the guy who wrote the book took *thousands* of words to say it. Or consider "The Brothers Karamazov", by the famous Russian alcoholic Fyodor Dostoyevsky. It's about these two brothers who kill their father. Or maybe only one of them kills the father. It's impossible to tell because what they mostly do is talk for nearly a thousand pages. If all Russians talk as much as the Karamazovs did, I don't see how they found time to become a major world power. I'm told that Dostoyevsky wrote "The Brothers Karamazov" to raise the question of whether there is a God. So why didn't he just come right out and say: "Is there a God? It sure beats the heck out of me." Other famous works could easily have been summarized in a few words: * "Moby Dick" -- Don't mess around with large whales because they symbolize nature and will kill you. * "A Tale of Two Cities" -- French people are crazy. -- Dave Barry
