Well.  Thanks to the list for the inputs. Finally, I managed to get the 
DVD playing correctly by changing the video output in VLC. I think the 
default was XVideo. Using this, it fails. I tried X11. With that, it's 
working... kinda... really slow (voice and video aren't in sync).  I 
then tried OpenGL which is working almost correctly.

With OpenGL, I only have a "refresh line" going from the top to the 
bottom of the VLC screen once in a while. I can live with that...
