I did a clean install without asking for the restricted extras at 
installation.

I found that package libdvdread4 was already installed. I configured it 
in the standard way:

    sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh

I could then play DVDs but didn't have sound. I fixed that by installing 
package gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly.
