Try Istanbul (apt:istanbul)

gtk-RecordMyDesktop works well for me.

I find istanbul give very poor results. low framerate and blurry videos, and my compiz effects wern't captured very well at all, and I dont believe it records sound.

recordmydesktop has more options to configure, gives higher quality output, captures compiz effects perfectly, and records sound as well.

I haven't tested either of these programs with a 3D FPS yet, but it works MUCH better than setting my video camera in front of my laptop screen.
