Another software I use to screen capture that works well is Gtk-recordmydesktop , available on ubuntu repositories .
Thanks a lot to all those dear friends who suggested me various solutions for recording screen. I tried all and most of them crashed, but gtk-recordMyDesktop worked fine on my Ubuntu 8.04. Its not only not crashing, but also giving all those features I needed. I actually needed it to create video about how to use Avidemux and gtkPod to convert your movies into mp4 format and then load on iPod. Now I can do that.
By the way, I guess there is no safe solution to get rid of Apple's firmware from iPod Classic 80GB and load GNU/Linux? Or is there some?
I had a dual-boot on my iPod and everything worked in linux, I could even play pong on the iPod - err.. except for some reason it wouldn't play music;-) - not sure what was wrong but the dual-boot seemed to work without problem - you can check if your iPod model is supported here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPodLinux ... if its an old enough model, I think its fairly safe to give it a go...
My iPod eventually fubared due to hard-ware reasons, so unfortunately haven't been able to pursue that course myself..
Best've luck, Sanjay
Thanks and regards Swapnil
