OK. I followed directions here:

When done and rebooted, xserver would not start.

The log shows: fglrx: No Matching Device Section for instance.

To get xserver to run, I had to comment out ATI references in /etc/X11/xorg.conf

#Section "Device"

# Identifier "device1"

# VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc"

# BoardName "ATI Radeon HD 2000 and later (radeon/fglrx)"

# Driver "fglrx"

# Option "DPMS"

#EndSection

I am using the driver Mandriva installed for it which is fglrx I believe. I tried installing ATI drivers on a the install prior to this and it knocked out xserver. Perhaps there is a how-to somewhere?

It can't play anything. mp3, ogg, mpg, wav, avi etc.

Surely kmplayer can play mpeg and ogg of the box, no?

It's as if it does nothing when I try to play anything. It just says "Ready".

I have searched, but I have not come up with anything. It worked in Kubuntu Jaunty and Karmic.

I am having much trouble with KMPlayer. It does nothing when I open a video. No picture, no sound, just blank. By contrast, VLC and Dragon Player work perfectly.
