OK, Milan, you are the man. I did: sudo gedit /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh for my i386 notebook and mod. the script for my amd64 as suggested: In the line available="i386" replace it with available="ia64" then re-run the script.
it works as it should on both (a bit slow on the notebook, I will investigate) - still the problem remain. We had a nice info in the packet manager saying that DVD DeCSS was not installed by default becouse blablabla and now, in the latest Ubuntu we just have an error? This is a serious drawback that will scare many first timer away; I'm not a first timer and, given for granted that DVD support was installed and working on the previous release, I had to research the net for answer and waste several hours. This MUST be corrected in the reps! Ubuntu team please take note.
