I would ask: If you allowed, on your installation, the "upgrade" away from
the Packman to the OpenSuse repository (1) Can you still play commercial
DVD movies on Tumbleweed; (2) Can you work with MP3 audio (Move WAV audio
to MP3). These were the things Packman added to my OpenSuse installations
since 10.3
Thanks,
