Erich, What happens when you run a program that the Wine application database shows as fully supported?
Hardware-centric applications are usually handled better with software written natively for Linux. This link (http://mrbass.org/linux/ubuntu/dvdshrink/) gives instructions on how to get DVD Shrink running, and many people have had good luck with using it. However, the open-source teams working on the Linux/Gnu/Debian/Ubuntu stack use open-source applications to test drivers and other programs that interact with hardware. Consequently, one should expect applications like DVD Shrink to have less stability than their open-source counterparts. There are more faster, more stable Linux alternatives for DVD backups. In each case, you will need to install libdvdcss2, available from the Medibuntu repository. (See http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/). "K3b" is IMHO the best. It depends on KDE libraries, so if you are resource constrained and are running the GNOME desktop (or if you just prefer GTK/GNOME applications), you may want to install thoggen or totem- gstreamer (along with the necessary gstreamer plugins for using DVDs).
