Okay. Now's the time for more details. What kind of DVD videos are you
trying to play: commercial, private, off brand, foreign, pirated,
etc.? What happens, shows on the monitor, etc. when you insert the
DVD? What does dmesg report? Do music and data DVD/CDs work okay?
B
Commercial videos is where I have the problems.
Data DVD/CDs work okay.
There is no error messages in /var/log/messages, I run the command tail
-f /var/log/messages and get no output when I run VLC from command line.
$ vlc
VLC media player 1.0.4 Goldeneye

I think this might be the problem. Right now I am watching a commercial
DVD with VLC. (totem also works) What does `dmesg |tail -20' give you?
On my system this is what I get when I put DVDs in my DVD drive.

PS: I am making a wild guess, could you try something like this to play
your DVD: `vlc dvd:///dev/sr0'
btw, Seabiscuit is one awesome movie.
