DVDs on Ubuntu?

So I'm downloading Ubuntu, hoping for a little better of a user experience than with opensuse, and I read on their Wikipedia article that it doesn't have native support for DVDs.

So, once I get it all installed and running and that, how do I go about getting the thing to play DVDs? I guess I need to DL libdvdcss as well as any necessary libraries for that as well as any necessary libraries for those etc. etc. etc., but what program? Does Ubuntu come with xine, or something like that?

Also, Opera. Does Ubuntu come with Opera, or must I download that seperate once I get it up and running.
 
Son of a... okay, even though my laptop model is listed under their supported hardware list as fully functional except for onboard modem and webcam, I still don't have any sound.

But the Automatix thing is working so far. I'll see if it works completely after it's done.
