Probably Kubuntu was using Kmplayer with the Xine backend. Xine has DVD menu support and AFAIK MPlayer doesn't on any platform. I would normally use Xine for DVDs and most video files as its picture quality is better. That said, if you want to play DVDs through mplayer you can navigate via the gmplayer context menu - you don't need to play the vob files directly.
