Yup - I use mplayer and (g)xine, the versions of both in Ubuntu are built with DVB support, though I find mplayer a little flaky. Copy (or link) your channels.conf to ~/.mplayer or ~/.xine, then simply start one or the other with a MRL of the form: dvb:// (Remember to escape spaces in the channel name with a backslash, or put the whole thing in double quotes.)
