Yes: First of all, the DRM works on file level,... (ok, there are things like HDCP), and the drive itself should behave nearly like a normal cd drive (AFAIK). Anyway, I've already read that some people used mplayer under linux to play (previously decrypted) blurays.
No: At least my 2.6.24 kernel seems not to support the UDF versions above 2.01,.. (and all my blurays seem to have versions above). > Death!! Death!!! :P :P :P For my bug: This is already known at lkml and there's even a bugreport at Redhat: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/28/535 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=351451 The problem has nothing to do with bluray itself but depends on a mixture of using a SATA ATAPI device with the sata_nv driver using ADMA mode and having >= 4GB main memory. Best wishes, Chris.
