Interesting about the device names. Like Ray said, /dev/dvd (etc) are
all links. In my case (and I suspect yours) they point to /dev/sr0,
/dev/sr1, etc.
Now that brings up the question: what are these devices? used to be
that my cdroms were /dev/hdX.
My nvidia is working just fine. Did you try with different versions? I

Ahh, sr* naming is using pata library, which deprecated the ide library somewhere around 2.6.18.
Could you do something? Try to rip the error-inducing DVD, using something like k9copy or acetoneiso2. Don't need to encode it to AVI, if the app gives you an option, just rip it to normal mpeg.
Personally this happens with a lot of home-made and in-house (ie. not commercial) DVDs, where I see that error, and the ripping stops abruptly. They can be ripped fine in other operating systems.
