I'm trying to play a dvd on a Thinkpad T40 with knoppix 3.8.1.

I boot from CD with the 'toram' parameter so that I can use the dvd drive later on. Since the T40 has some problems with sound, I need to run 'alsaconf' to get it sorted. then I need to install the libdvdcss2 package. this fails with some segmentation fault.

when I install the libdvdcss2 package before i run alsaconf, libdvdcss2 gets installed properly but alsaconf fails with a segmentation fault.

anyone have a clue why the two don't like each other ?

Thanks....
