It's very easy to in xine, totem or mplayer.

I'd recommend totem. I would also recommend totem-xine which will play a
lot more of your files than totem-gstreamer.

just run 'totem dvd:/<path.to.where.dvd.is>

Here's an example of how I do it.

totem dvd:/home/lexhider/Film/DVDs/AMERICAN_SPLENDOR/

It does appear that you need to specify the entire pathname.
