. First find a machine with ubuntu installed and with INTERNET connection.Then use following command.

%sudo apt-get install vlc vlc-plugin-esd mozilla-plugin-vlc -download-only

All files downloaded after above command are found at /var/cache/apt/archives/
Copy these files into a single folder and install them using command'

%dpkg -i *.deb (pwd must be that folder where you copied the files)

(Suggestion : Please remove/move all files in /var/cache/apt/archives before downloading the new files)

Also VLC is available for other distros also.
