Thank you very much, this was by far the easiest method I have yet found, very friendly script!

Since this was posted a few versions back, make sure to replace the two instances of “Gutsy” with whatever version you are using (intrepid, jaunty, etc.)

I would greatly prefer “add this to your apt sources” over a pointless shell script I have to scrutinize before pasting. Also, this would help to counteract the some of the negative effects of the ubuntu recipe-driven culture. thanks

Thanks a lot! After it asked for my sudo password it stopped, but I just pasted it again and it worked like a charm. Only it didn’t do the last line to say “Done.” for some reason. Oh well, it works great now and I can finally play the DVDs I’m legally entitled to play!

Worked until I chose ‘Y’ when asked if I wanted to continue the installation at which point I got – ‘Abort.’ and nothing happened. Weird. Anyway, just re-entering the install line (line above echo ‘done’) did the trick, and now I can play encrypted DVDs. Thanks.
