Do you have a G3 or a G4 ?On my 700Mhz G3, I can't watch DVD's with xine, it's too slugish, althought it works OK with ogle or mplayer. It works better on G4 since you can use the altivec extensions.
If you're just looking for the easiest way to watch DVD's, just give ogle a try. It doesn't need any special setup apart from instaling the libcss to allow decryption, just look at

AFAIK you need a /dev/dvd device (on my machine it points to /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 because I use devfsd).Further, I have a /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0line in /etc/fstaband you also need the libdvdread package which is not included in the Debian distribution (I guess due to DMCA provisions) to play encrypted DVDs. Maybe someone packages it for all the supported architectures - I might put it up for download then.Salut Mark
