Record your desktop with recordmydesktop ;)

It's an edgy package, not a dapper one. Looking at http://packages.ubuntu.com/,
shows that you can satisfy the dependency (libasound2 (>> 1.0.11) , while dapper is at 1.0.10) ,
if you enable the backports repository.

That's the version of libasound2 that's on my computer according to Synaptic...any other ideas?

yeah i'm having the same problem the libasound2 thing and synaptic says i'm upto date with the 1.0.10 but like you said edgy eft has the 1.0.11 so how do i upgrade to the new one without updating to edgy eft yet?
thanks in advance

a dapper deb package must be created, i can't create a dapper package, because my pc is all edgy now, perhaps someone can volunteer for building the dapper package of recordmydesktop

Have you posted a link to the sources yet? If you did, I must have missed it...

I installed the prog, and ran it. It seems to try and record (the tray icon is the same as istanbuls, right?)

After stopping the recording, it ran my CPU to the ground for 5 mins or so, and them came up with error 11.

It's places a file in my /home folder called out.ogg, which, according to the thumbnail at least, seems to be the recording. If I try and open it in any player, however, it opens, and then closes immediately.

Suggestions?

what's the size of out.ogg , its seems you installed the older pacakge release, casue the new one is just the command line
and no gtk front end yet

The source code to the program... so that it can be built on Dapper, or any other Linux flavor for that matter.
