Beck, download this, then copy to /usr/lib/win32. That file has all the codecs.
For the audio, I had the same problem, but it had to do with the sound mixer. If the codecs don't work (or you already have them) try bringing up the mixer window (Multimedia->Volume Control->KAMix) and checking the volume levels.
I thought hockey started at 2...

Yeah I got MPlayer working now, I installed the skins to the wrong directory so I don't have a gui yet. I also have xine up and running with a gui.
Neither will play veronica mars, and theres no audio on ReGenesis though... I think I need to find codecs

okay, so Andy and Eric, here's the lowdown:
Tickets are $5, I'll get them today, and Douglas Coupland is reading at the Paramount (?) on Monday the 10th. I'll have the full details for you this afternoon sometime, but I thought I'd post at least that right now. and apparently you have to be soft spoken to work at Audrey's...

Tay should I read Robert Heinleins's Starship Trooper? I hear from the mecha enthusist that it is a must read book. It is supposedly the earliest story written with powered battle armour. Also I hear the military strategy and society is well developed and written about. The only negative I hear is that the weapons are vaugely described and are not put into much detail.

but that's half the fun.
Rufus is my favourite gay musician (at this moment at least) - and no, not because he's gay, because he sings beautifully, and he's just plain beautiful... but you have to remind yourself now and again that it's not even worth having a crush on someone if they're that happily gay (and sing about it so wonderfully in all their songs). And some of you might know him better as Rufus Wainwright. His mom's one of the McGarrigle Sisters (folk singing group) and his dad's Loudon Wainwright III (another folk singer). If you need more of an explanation than that, check out this link.
