    I did this by first completley uninstalling Kaffein and zine. Then downloading
    all the needed RPMs to one place. then installing them one at a time. This
    took a bit of time but worked flawlessly for ALL dvds and vcds. I don't like
    mucking about with things. If some one has changed a program then it can be
    messy trying to unchange it. As copying protected dvds is illegal but not
    watching them (not yet in Australia) simply having the decss stuff and using
    to view not copying should be OK. ( I think Check your local laws!)
