Hi,

I have libdvdread-0.9.2 installed, but when i try to play a dvd from a 
directory, i get:
########################################################################
rebehn at oslo [/misc/movies]: vlc --input dvd X-Files-DVD
VideoLAN Client - version 0.3.1 Ourumov - (c) 1996-2002 VideoLAN

ipv6 error: cannot create socket (Address family not supported by protocol)
input warning: this UDP syntax is deprecated ; the server argument will be
ignored (X-Files-DVD:0). If you wanted to enter a multicast address
or local port, type : udp:@X-Files-DVD:0
##########################################################################

The specified directory is the top level dir of the dvd, which contains 
video_ts. Specifying .../viedo_ts does not help either.

What's wrong?
