After doing a fresh install of Kubuntu Feisty, I checked to see which exact packages would be needed to make DVD playback work. There are three packages that are not installed by default that need to be installed before DVD playback will work (actually two in case you're just playing unencrypted DVDs). They are libdvdread3, libxine1-ffmpeg, and libdvdcss2. libdvdcss2 will have to be acquired elsewhere as it is not in the Ubuntu repository. If you don't intend to play encrypted DVDs ever, you don't have to install libdvdcss2. Additionally, libxine1-ffmpeg requires libmad0 and will install libmad0 automatically.
