With regard to DVD playback:
Install libdvdread4 from the Ubuntu repo. To install, run the following command in terminl

sudo apt-get install libdvdread4
Once fully installed, run the command below

sudo /user/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh
Now you should be able to insert & play a DVD using Totem or VLC.

libdvdcss2 has been replaced by libdvdread4. You can still get libdvdcss2, but you need to enable the medibuntu PPA to get it.

Getting into Gnome fallback:
log out, and when you log back in, instead of choosing 'Ubuntu' click the ubuntu icon and choose Gnome-fallback. That should take you to where you want to be. If that option isn't there, you'll need to install it.

Hope that helps. Welcome aboard!
