For most of the SuSE Multimedia RPM's have a look at
http://packman.links2linux.org/
The libdvdcss-1.2.8.rpm can be obtained from here
http://cambuca.ldhs.cetuc.puc-rio.br/xine/
although you can download all the xine stuff from this site I have had better
results from the packman site.
If you are after gnome related packages have a look at
http://www.usr-local-bin.org/
Also the apt depositaries are at
ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/SuSE/
