The bug exists in intrepid too. I use Kubuntu. A few weeks ago I had to replace the existing DVD drive. I hadn't played a DVD yet, but everything else worked. So I thought the drive was broken again, when it failed to play several DVDs and I did not get any error message. Only when I fired up Windows I learned what the problem was. I was immediately asked to set the region code, when starting to play the DVD. After doing this, it worked with Kubuntu too. So it would be really great, if one would receive an error message or even better, if Kubuntu gave the possibility to set the region code.
