My appologies to the list. This is to hopefully pre-empt anymore messages to the list.
There are currently a few projects working on the DVD issues for linux. I suggest heading over to:
http://linuxdvd.corepower.com and http://livid.on.openprojects.net
These two sites have mailing lists associated with them (both archived on the sites) and should provide you with the best information available for issues surrounding DVD-Video playing on linux. If anyone has any questions about this feel free to mail me off-list and I'll try to help however I can. This isn't the place for a discussion on DVD hardware support as there are a lot of issues (very few technical, mostly legal and licensing) to get through before that becomes a real possibility/issue.
