I tried watching a dvd but each time I try, I receive the error message "could not read from resource". Anyone have a clue why I can't read from the resource? It is not a burned copy of a dvd, it is the original dvd. I am running a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop running Ubuntu 8.04. Hope this helps. Thanks. Mark </BODY> </HTML>
