[ltp] DVD movie playing issues

I am having problems playing DVD movies. The Movies are:
 Bourne Identity
 Primus - Hallucinogenetics concert

Both of these work on my desktop system, also running gentoo with the same
USE flags in mplayer and xine.

This is a brand new IBM Thinkpad T43, running gentoo.

Here's what we get with Bourne Identity with mplayer:

$ mplayer dvd://
MPlayer dev-CVS-060102-02:04-3.4.5 (C) 2000-2005 MPlayer Team
CPU: Intel Pentium M Dothan (Family: 6, Stepping: 8)
MMX2 supported but disabled
CPUflags:  MMX: 1 MMX2: 0 3DNow: 0 3DNow2: 0 SSE: 1 SSE2: 1
Compiled with runtime CPU detection - WARNING - this is not optimal!
To get best performance, recompile MPlayer with
--disable-runtime-cpudetection.


89 audio & 203 video codecs

Try adding "echo 1024 > /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq" to your system
startup scripts.

Which goes on for a while. Eventually it plays the warning screens,
tries to move on
and there is a massive flood of:

*** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:669 ***
*** for pgc->cell_position_offset != 0 ***


*** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:649 ***
*** for pgc->nr_of_programs <= pgc->nr_of_cells ***


*** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:667 ***
*** for pgc->program_map_offset != 0 ***


*** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:668 ***

*** for pgc->nr_of_programs <= pgc->nr_of_cells ***


*** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:667 ***
*** for pgc->program_map_offset != 0 ***


I then have to killall -9 xine...


In system logs is where things get really interesting:

ide: failed opcode was: unknown
end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 15367956
hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: command error: error=0x50 { LastFailedSense=0x05 }

end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 15367960

hdc being my dvd drive. I do not have problems with this drive at any
other time.

I get similar issues with the Primus DVD. BOTH of these work on my desktop.
