Also, if you intend to watch CSS-encrypted DVD's with Xine (that'd be
most store-bought movie DVD's), you'll need the DeCSS library.  That's
not going to be on the install CD of any GNU/Linux distribution
"officially" made or sold in the United States.  That work is done
outside of the USA, for legal reasons.  I've heard that it works, but I
just haven't tried it myself.

I've been having quite good results with Ogle; I didn't do anything special
about DeCSS, so it must have been one of the standard packages I grabbed to
install it. See http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/groups/dvd/ (Oh, yeah - I see
the reference to libdvdcss on the Ogle site. No problem installing it,
though).

Best,
