The Medibuntu Project has come to an end: what do I do now?
How do I find packages on my system which came from medibuntu? The previous question seems to list medibuntu packages explicitly - is there a way to query the package database by the source?
Do I need to remove them so that they are replace by maintained packages from other sources?
Which repository contains those packages now?
Recently I started having a problem when checking for updates: the process stalled for several minutes while connecting to the medibuntu site. This happened every time. (Mysteriously, this only happened on one of my two computers.) Getting tired of this, I unchecked Medibuntu in my software sources, and everything speeded up again.
Is this something I will regret? I have some things installed from Medibuntu, but once installed do I get anything by getting updates from Medibuntu? Or are things now provided elsewhere - like in Multiverse - sufficiently now so that I no longer need Medibuntu?
I sometimes want to use my computer as a DVD-player. Unfortunately I know that I will often have to cope with encrypted DVDs, for example with CSS.
Therefore I installed the libdvdcss2 library from Medibuntu. But from now on, how can I be sure I will be able to read any DVD whatever its encryption, may it be CSS or another protection?
By the way, I precise that passing through such protective measures is allowed in my country, "for interoperability purposes".
i cannot see video with "movie player", "GNOME video" OR with "VLC media player" ... or in any browser .. ANnyone have any guesses??
Can someone describe the difference between the codecs in the Medibuntu Repository versus buying the Fluendo codecs?
Are they the same? Does one have better quality etc?
My Dell Mini originally came with Fluendo installed, but I have since upgraded several times and just used Medibuntu - but I am wondering if I am missing something.
