I've had success with growisofs burning DVD video. I've never tried it with data, but I assume it works the same. My only problem has been that growisofs can't tell my burner to work at 8x speed.<br><br>If you have built your ISO, gnome-baker has also worked for me. I think it is a front end for growisofs.
