Well that did not work:

root at boo-boo:~# apt-get install libdvdread3
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
libdvdread3 is already the newest version.
libdvdread3 set to manually installed.

dpkg - warning: downgrading libdvdcss2 from 1.2.9-2medibuntu4 to 1.2.5-1.
(Reading database ... 179611 files and directories currently installed.)

And I still get the popup.

What can I try now?
