Well, this almost proves libdvdcss is buggy. According to wikipedia, libdvdcss tries a list of keys and if not successful, tries a brute force algorithm wich, if successful, should ignore region codes. Aparently, the bug is only percievable if one tries to use discs with a different region code than the DVD drive being used. I don't know about you, but this could mean using another operating system, though may not seem so serious for many. Luckily, I was able to go over it using regionset. Not perfect because not all my discs are from the same region code... At least it is good enough for me to continue with (K)ubuntu. Please, fix this bug aap, Thanks in advance.
