xine dvd:/ will play a dvd

Since it's kind of illegal, debian doesn't ship it by default, so add this to 
your sources.list:

deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat unstable main

and install the package libdvdcss2 (???)-- xine may or may not tell you what 
you actually need

At least that's what I do on debian.

Have fun, good luck.

Don't tell Big Brother.
