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.

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.

I wonder if there is a linux-DVD-ripper like DVD-Shrink for windose ...
If you don't know DVD-Shrink: It simply lets you rip a complete Movie-DVD to HD, setting every track a own compression, or you can choose the tracks you want from a DVD in remastering-mode. Does not compress to Divx or so... just compresses the vobs, so you can directly burn it to a DVD...
Distribution: Solaris 8,9,FedoraCore2,Mandrake10,Knoppix,RedHat9

Rep:
Hi if you are in to gui you could use dvd::rip which is pretty much easy to use. If you just want to rip the DVD to VOB files in your harddrive use "vobcopy" in freshmeat.net. I am yet to find an easy way to transcode in command mode.
dvd::rip just does the job. I think it runs on perl or something
Have been looking around a bit... a bit :-) I think something like vobcopy does almost what I want...
The interesting thing would be some programm that compresses the vob's ... so I could fit them onto a DVD5 ...
Is there something additional to vobcopy that can manage this task?
