If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
It is a modest script created to install a few free and non-free libraries and packages for Debian GNU/Linux based on the ubuntu-restricted-extras Ubuntu’s package.
Why?
The main goal of this script is to have a one-step method to configure a Debian Workstation to decode mp3, avi, mpeg and work with flash, java and rar files.
Details
DNX will add the contrib, non-free and Debian Multimedia repositories to your APT configuration file and install all the required packages.
To get a complete list of the packages that will be installed check here

First you need to download the DNX script from here http://mey-online.com.ar/dnx/dnx-lenny-0.1.sh
or
Using the following command
# wget http://www.mey-online.com.ar/dnx/dnx-lenny-0.1.sh
Change de permissions to made it executable:
# chmode +x dnx-lenny-0.1.sh
And run:

If you already have configured the Debian Multimedia repository select the option 2, otherwise select the full instalation.
