There are some nice graphical tools for burning CDs but they are all just front-end GUIs for "cdrecord" or "cdrdao" (if you are making Video CDs etc). I actually prefer to do *all* of my burning from the command line.

"Kino" is a great app for capturing and editing video from your video camera (firewire) or TV card. "MPlayer", "Xine", and "Ogle" are great multimedia players for all media formats from the web and VCD/DVDs play.

Evolution is a nearly identical clone to Microsoft Outlook (without the viruses).

pkd_lives:
There are some nice links at the home page of this site.

And just to let you know - Adobe Acrobat reader (pdf) is available for Linux - so it's it's own recommendation.

And Void main I must thank you for the ogle thing. I can now watch my DVDs of the first season of the Simpsons, and my Monty Python films and the series all work now, before I could only get Life of Brian to run under Xine. That is a nice little program.

RudeCat7:
What's gonna replace that super kewl app: BSOD ?

All the 1337 windows users have this on their boxes.  :confused:

TheQuirk:
I remember SuSe has a BSOD emulator (I'm serious. I think "emulation" even has it's own little menu group thingie. . .)

voidmain:
There is also a BSOD screen saver.
