Description Danny 2005-03-08 16:32:24 UTC
when I try to run any application that plays dvd's I get this error

libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.8 for DVD access
libdvdread: Can't open file VIDEO_TS.IFO.
Can't open VMG info.

I was using 2.6.10r7, tried upgrading to 2.6.11r2
recompiled mplayer, libdvdread, libdvdcss, ogle with dvdread and dvd support
tried switching to udev, same error
