AFAIK (AIANAE ;-) there is nothing specific in the driver to deal with jitter and doesn't really need to be. Dumping the tracks uses digital audio extraction. Absence of jitter is a design feature of most drives that support digital audio extraction (http://www.cdrfaq.org/faq02.html#S2-15). FWIW, I've not found differences (using cmp) between consecutive rippings of the same track...I've done a significant fraction of my CD collection with this method and been very happy with the results (thanks Soren!)
