[ale] DVD authoring software?

[Jim Lynch]

I have a bunch of photos and a few .avi files I'd like to get burned to 
DVD.  There seems to be a variety of programs out there to do it but I'm 
looking for advice on which one to use.  I have a limited time available 
so I'm looking for something without a steep learning curve.  I don't 
need a lot of fancy features.  I don't have any sound.  I'm running 
Ubuntu 8.04 or Centos 5.1 if that makes a difference.

If anyone knows of a tutorial that might help too.

Thanks,
Jim.
