Where I can find one? I have Mandrake 9.1 and I see the other post asking a similar question but dont help in any way to me.

Which one is the easiest to install?

Hardware DVD player or Software? I have a pioneer hardware DVD player in and I use Mplayer for the software.

I heard it's a pain to watch DVD's in Linux. I have a DVD-ROM and I can get the first 30 seconds of a movie and it stops.
