Read the wiki. Link at the top of the page.

Kaffeine uses xine as backend, not mplayer :)
-
Just use the integrated vnc tools in kde or gnome. Security is good enough (I mean you´re not going to do your online banking over vnc right? )
-
You need to install the codec package for mplayer, not xine. :)
-
KDE and Gnome come with integrated vnc clients and servers. Why would you want to use anything else?
-
The filters in avidemux do that. :) I don´t use them since I only record from the TV signal as an mpeg2 file but last time I looked there where crop filters etcetc

xmame/xmess 0.105 is now available. You can grab a patch and full
sources from
http://x.mame.net/download/0.104-0.105.diff.bz2
http://x.mame.net/download/xmame-0.105.tar.bz2
Changes since 0.104:
- Everything from MAME 0.105 (http://x.mame.net/changes-mame.html) and
MESS 0.105 (http://x.mame.net/changes-mess.html).
- Fixed "-frames_to_run/-ftr" so that it works the same as on Windows.
- Fixed a memory leak in the plugin manager shutdown found by Valgrind.
Bugzilla bug 850.
- The output of "-listroms (-lr)" now shows the correct driver name
when it's run for all ROMs.
- Fixed a potential buffer overflow in the standard joystick driver.
Bugzill bug 821. (Pierre Riteau)
- In fullscreen mode, the display no longer appears underneath other
windows when the window manager is Metacity 2.14.x. However, there's
still a problem with keystrokes not being received, but you can use
"-grabkeyboard (-gkb)" or left-ctrl + end as a workaround.
P.S. It looks as if the fullscreen problem isn't just limited to Metacity.

A blank kmix (what happens when you type: alsamixer in a console?) ususally means the driver isn't installed correctly. Make sure every sound application is shut dwon and nothng is using the soundcard when you configure sound. Try again.
-
You could try using alsa.
Alternative Drivers: snd-emu10k1Click configure and select this driver. (it will probably install the alsa packages). Then go to system, services and make sure alsa is running. (do all this with all sound applications closed.)

No but it will show what happens when you start kalarm (if something is wrong). With these errors we can try and find a solution.
Here is a copy of my kalarmrc. Try this:
[EditDialog]Height 768=543
Width 1024=614
[MainWindow]
Height 768=223
Width 1024=426
[Notification Messages]
ConfirmAlarmDeletion=true
EmailQueuedNotify=false
QuitWarn=yes

I think you have onboard sound. You have to tell the musicplayer application to use the soundblaster and not the onboard sound chip. (Or you could disable onboard sound in the BIOS)

What errors do you get when you try to play a sound?

This is in Dutch: http://gathering.tweakers.net/forum/list_m...ndige%2Cscripts
If you can't read Dutch just have a look at the scripts.

What is the error message acompaning the message the package could not be installed? Have you setup urpmi correctly?
-
Sounds like a problem with digikam. Have you tried reinstalling or updating digikam?
-
Yes same problem here. I keep an eye on the nvnews forum but so far nothing.
-
Have you tried restarting KDE? What happens if go to the trash folder trough Konqueror (click 'go to' and select trash). Can you drag and drop trash to the trash folder? Can you empty your trash folder?

Basically there are 2 options then, Freevo and Mythtv. I´ve used both (now using Mythtv). I´ve written howtos (see the tips and tricks forum) how to install these. As with everything else: if you know what you are doing it is easy. Mandriva 2006.0 works perfectly with mythtv. I don´t know about freevo with 2006.0 but I doubt you will have problems. I think you should just install it and see how it goes. if you need specific advize for som eof the problems you will run into post them here.
Good luck.

If you just want to play your divx collection you don´t need a htpc solution: just a fileserver and lirc (linux infrared control) is enough. You can install a vnc server on the file server if you want to control it from widows.
