well, it's my first time with vlc, mplayer suited me fine
until i found some ogm files it couldn't play the audio of,
so maybe i am doing something wrong, but on i386 basically
nothing works from the ui and core dumps galore...
i was surprised it wasn't marked BROKEN or something.
anybody tried to open the playlist?  or open files thru the open dialog?

hm hm.
