It's good to see that you already have VLC 2.0 running on Unbuntu.  I 
have been looking around and I can't seem to find 2.0 for Linux except 
in source code form.  I looked in the Unbuntu repositories and all I 
found was the old version.  I looked at the VLC website and I didn't 
find a compiled version for Ubuntu.  Where can I find it and what must I 
do to install it if 2.0 isn't the Ubuntu repository.
