do u mean software to play your dvd's?
if so u can download xine a dvd player for linux like windvd from http://xine.sourceforge.net
to play encyrpted dvd's (which they all seem to be) u need a plugin for xine
i use d5d plugin located @ http://www.captaincss.tk
it also has menu support which xine currently doesnt handle by itself
they are pretty easy to setup after u read the docs, if u have any troubles setting it up email or pm me and i will do my best to help

try ogle http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/groups/dvd/
it will play encrypted and unencrypted DVD's. I have used it on Red Hat 7.1 and Mandrake 8.2.
