I'm running SUSE 10.0 x86_64, installed the packman win32 codecs to that
directory. No matter what player, I keep getting a message that additional
plugins may be necessary to play Windows Media 9 files. But searching in
YAST for win32, plugin & plug-in all seem to indicate I've got all the
available plugins installed. ;-)

It seems like win32 codecs (32-bit) loading doesn't work with either
64-bit xine (which Kaffeine uses by default) or mplayer. Please refer to
this thread:

Just install MPlayer with Packman as an installation source.

works like a charm. thanks
