I have the single layer writer (2500a - the 2510 was out of stock when I
bought it), but have upgraded it to dual layer and to let me write at 8x
to more media.  I've not used it in linux, but it's worked fine for me
in Windows (sorry, sorry, sorry, but my linux machine isn't as beefy as
my windows games box - and doom3 does appear to need windows and beefy
hardware!).
Expensive  DVcam and DVDRW drive make a nice combo. If only the DVcam
was mine :-(
