Use acidrip to rip... the creator is a moderator here on this site..

http://acidrip.sourceforge.net

And for burning them to disc, well, cdrecord works best along with your choice of GUI app like Xcdroast which is very popular.

install dvdrip and transcode and all necessary dependencies, which is fairly easy to check as dvdrip has a built in dependencies checker. in my opinion by far the best tool for Linux. i have also had success with acidrip, k9copy, rip-o-matic and even dvdshrink with wine installed but the latter one requires you to understand wine to a degree so you can set the parameters for the working directories properly. but once you have that right it works pretty much the same as in windoze. if you install mscore fonts first it even looks great too! what distro are you using? if you use ubuntu or mepis you can install automatix2 which makes it easy to install a lot of useful apps including dvdrip. just google for it. i am sure you'll love it.

regards
ron
