I tried to use DVD, but I could not use DVD device. 
Even though I inserted CD into DVD/CD device, I couldn't
mount CD with following error messages.

  ---
  Could not mount device.
  The reported error was
  mount: I could not determin the file system type, and
  none was specified.
  ---

I think this is LINUX problem. But if you have information
about it, please let me know.

If  I forced to execute vlc as follows, the error said 
  ---

[ vlc with Windows 2000 problem]
I installed vlc with Windows 2000, too. I could install
vlc, but I couldn't watch MPG 1 file with vlc.
But  I could watch that file with Windows Media Player
version 6.4.09.
 
What I tried are:
(1) Selected MPG file with [File]->[Open File] in vlc
     menu.
(2) Then I push [Play] button, but nothing played.
(3) Even though I opened the "Play List", there were no
     file information and Duration was "no info".
(4) I couldn't select file in "[Setting Preference] ->
    [File] -> [Brows]".
(5) Interface : Default Interface  in
    [Setting]->[Preference]  was "gtk+".
     Is that right ?

If you have advise, please let me know.

Thank you very much.
Regards,

isao
