KDE-Forum.org

I just installed kubuntu a few days ago, and have only a small amount of prior experience with linux, which made this distro seem like a good starting point.

The only problem that I have had thus far is that when trying to play movie files I dont have the correct codecs. I downloaded the MPlayer Codecs and attempted to install them when I discovered that I have no root file manager access and have no idea how to get it. Kaffeine says it will look for the codecs in "/usr/lib/win32"

But I canot create the win32 folder or transfer a folder of the same name with the codecs in it to "/usr/lib"

Please help!

thanks a bunch, i knew it was going to be something easy like that ^_^;
