Is it crashing when at dvd menu or while at film? To play menus you need xine-dvdnav plugin.
I have a Mandrake 8.2 and see DVD with no problems at all. If I do (as root): rpm -qa | grep xine I get the following list of installed packages: xine-win32-0.9.13-3plf libxine0-0.9.13-3plf xine-ui-0.9.13-2mdk xine-esd-0.9.13-3plf xine-oss-0.9.13-3plf xine-divx4-0.9.13-3plf xine-xvid-0.9.13-3plf xine-dvdnav-0.9.13-1mdk libxine0-devel-0.9.13-3plf xinetd-2.3.7-1.1mdk xine-aa-0.9.13-3plf xine-plugins-0.9.13-3plf xine-dxr3-0.9.13-3plf xine-d5d-0.2.7-2plf xine-faad-0.9.13-3plf xine-ui-aa-0.9.13-2mdk xine-arts-0.9.13-3plf libxine0-docs-0.9.13-3plf xine_d4d_plugin-0.3.2-2plf Anyway, give a try to se what gmplayer says, it is a really good player. Xine has better user interface (at least to me) but it seems gplayer has more resistent codecs (they suffer less corruptions found in the stream). If you can't get anything neither with Xine nor Gmplayer, it's probably a device config problem, so if so post detailed error message of both players. Good luck.
