I just installed MakeMKV linux ? (beta) on Gentoo and succeeded with my first Blu-Ray disk.
Gentoo System: Linux-2.6.37-gentoo-x86_64-Intel-R-_Core-TM-_i7_CPU_930_@_2.80GHz-with-gentoo-2.0.1
Requires root / sudo access.
I'm not positive that aacskeys are needed, but I had them installed beforehand and everything's working.
Download ? source and binaries from
http://www.makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=224
Save to a folder in your home directory (I created a new directory: ~/makemkv-build)
Make sure the prerequisites are present, I didn't have to add anything as Gentoo is pre-built for making with gcc. (If you were gonna need anything it would probably be
qt4).
Normal linux instructions on download page worked perfectly.
This is good stuff. Thank you MakeMKV!

Hi, makemkv does not need root access (unless you just meant to install). You are either not part of some group, or you do not have access to some temp folder.
PS: AACS keys are not required by makemkv.

You might need to be a member of "cdrom" group.

Thank you very much for the information. I am looking forward to ripping my blue rays to .mkv files to store and watch on my ps3. My only concern here has to do with the audio. Will the .mkv's audio output still be full surround sound, or are there limitations here? I would really hate to lose that, I really love the separation of audio between the
center speaker, left, right, and back speakers. I really hope that this isn't an issue with the software, or I might have to rethink my approach here.
