You will find any new operating system difficult to get used to
at first. It's been a year for me and I feel pretty comfortable
with Kubuntu now. I've got lots of prior console experience
on other systems, though. (I recommend learning the console, it
gives you more understanding and control.)

Help for the DVD issue can be found at http://ubuntuforums.org
Just search until you find a guide that is right for your version
of Kubuntu.

I'm on Kubuntu Feisty, and instructions similar to this page
worked for me:

What's your version of Kubuntu ?

Regards,

Anton.
