[ubuntu-nz] 11.04 freezes when playing dvd

[brent henson]

typical !!! i tried runing top in terminal all good so fired up dvd
drive....an hour later no probs at all had a bit of  jerky playback  and
that was (according to top) update-apt-xapi useing 96.6% cpu  other than
that its fine ??????
just like when you take the car in due to odd noises only for it to be fine
when the mechanic drives it
thanks for the idieas
