Glad to hear it's going well!

That's strange, and I wouldn't expect it to do that every time. It uses
cdparanoia as its back end, which generally works quite well (and pretty
quickly). It's possible that the drive is misconfigured, but probably
more likely, it was an isolated problem with that track on that disc.

Yes, like I said, it's rough around the edges! The easiest way to get
around this, if you have enough screen real estate, is simply to invoke
rubyripper from the command line (ie konsole or gterminal or whatever) -
type rrip-gui. That way you get to watch cdparanoia in action on the
command line, while still using the GUI to control things.
