Hiya,

I've just installed Gentoo 1.4rc2 and upgraded everything, including
kde-3.1.

I'm trying to get my DVD player to work in Linux, but don't know how to
go about it.

I've done 'emerge xine-ui'. it all installed fine and I can play dvds
without (i think) encryption, but when it comes to disks with
encryption, it doesn't play (says something about an i/o error).

The problem i've got is that the firmware on the drive and been
'cracked' so that it'll play any region - it's regionless. In windows, i
need to use DVD Region Encoder to get it to work (it simulated the
region needed for the disk).

Anyone got any idea how i can get around this. I've got both region 1
and region 2 dvds. btw, it's a pioneer 116 (i think again :).
