it was supposed to be my first DVD

[Dan Jacobson <jidanni@jidanni.org>]

It's my first DVD, and
# mplayer dvd://1
libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.5 for DVD access
libdvdread: Could not open /dev/dvd with libdvdcss.
libdvdread: Can't open /dev/dvd for reading
Couldn't open DVD device: /dev/dvd

Does this mean the physical device,
# cat /proc/ide/ide1/hdd/m*
cdrom
DVD-ROM DDU1621
is bad? or is my lilo.conf
	append="pci=biosirq hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi max_scsi_luns=1"
bad? and why above does it say cdrom?

I assume it is these issues and we haven't even got to the encryption
business. Yes I linked hdd->dvd.
