Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Rep:
I had a similar issue a while back with smplayer, and I never did find an answer for mplayer. However, some people who used newer software than myself (IE, they used Debian unstable, rather than Debian stable, as I use), seemed to have less problems. So, if you could upgrade fedora to a newer version, then that might help (if there is a newer version than what you're using -- I'm not sure since I'm not a fedora user).
I was able to get the dvd I was having problems with to play using kaffeine, though. So, you may try installing kaffeine to see if it will work for you.
