Hello,
I have a previous post about grip which is not supported. It used an mp3 encoder, I think the mp3 package was lame. None of these files appear in openSuse. I was able to get grip from an online source, but it does not function correctly. No playback, and no ripping with an "invalid rip executable" message, even though I think I have chosen the internal one.
Is there a application that will generate mp3 files as I used to? K3b generated .ogg files. Can .ogg files be used interchangeably with mp3 formates files?

In your first post you said "I was hopping for suggestions on ripping tools that can be initiated from the command line." but all the subsequent discussion seems to have been about GUI tools. Morituri rip is a command line tool which defaults to flac, (a higher quality format than mp3), but it can also rip to mp3, alac, wav, wavpack, mp3vbr and vorbis. It aims for quality over speed. It uses the MusicBrainz server to get CD information, and Accurip to check the quality of the rip. It also writes an extra folder containing *.log, *.cue and *.m3u files which I don't need, so I run it from a python script which deletes these after ripping is complete. Just a happy user.
