Almost any modern DVD drive will work with Linux. You don't state
whether you have a SCSI or IDE system, but recent versions work quite
well for playing DVDs and using DVD-R/RWs for storage with DVD writers.
 I've had good luck with NECs recently but they were also some of the
cheapest I could find that could record and play Dual sided media.  You
might instead want to pick out a model or two and ask if anyone has had
problems with that model or that brand.
