I assume your using Ubuntu and you need to load the VLC media
player. Do this with $sudo apt-get install vlc. When that is
working you need to add some more drivers for DVD movies. Go to:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
and d/l the drivers. Now you can display your movie full
screen if desired.
