    linux codecs

    This is the problem if I try to run totem player:
    Video codec 'MS WMV 9 (win32)' is not handled. You might need to install additional plugins to be able to play some types of movies.
    any codec packs i can download and how do i do this?
    or the one for this atleast? ubuntu 6.0.6 is what im running.

    Good riddance. Wish I'd done it about a year ago.

    use the package manager in the restriced repository to download the codecs.

    also be aware of the wiki on ubuntu.com - it has the answer to pretty much all the questions you've asked so far.
    It is Inevitable.....
