This problem occurs with 2 machines (laptop) on which I installed fedora 23. Problem does not occur on a third computer running fedora 21. On one of the laptops where previously installed a debian, and no problem occured. It is not a vlc problem; vlc mounts and reads these dvd without any problem, I think that it is an xfce problem, but on my fedora 21 I have the same version of xfce as on laptops with fedora 23. -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Laboratoire CNRS MAP5, UMR 8145 Université Paris Descartes 45, rue des Saints Pères F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 Tél. +33 (0)1 8394 5849 http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte
