Mike,
I'm all for free software, but sometimes it makes some sense to pay for professional solutions and support a developer who has a financial incentive to keep up with OS changes and support users directly.
In that spirit, there's an inexpensive program ($25) available online called DVDxDV - that will rip a DVD directly into a Quicktime DV file that you can import into FCP without any hassle.
the website is
DVDxDV
I used the base program for 2-3 years an the Pro version for an additional 2 years and it's never failed to perform to expectations.
FWIW
