I'm going to create some Ubuntu tutorial videos, what to use?

[BathroomNinja]

I'm installing 4 new computers for a client of mine, and putting them all on Drake. To simplify things, I'm going to give them some lessons on how to use Ubuntu. But I also plan to make several short videos showing them how to do simple tasks and basic Ubuntu usuage. This will also help me when I install Ubuntu on friends computers. It will save me hours of going over the basics.

I remember seeing an article somewhere a few months back that mentioned some open source software that lets you record whats on the screen, making these kind of tutorials easy to put together. For the life of me, I can't find this software. Does anyone know what its called or something else like it that I can use?

Again, thank you so much! This will really help me out. When I'm done with them (in a few weeks probably), I will stick them on the web for others to download if they like (free of course).

Hi, I was going to do a project like this.. I was using Wink... http://www.debugmode.com/wink/

It's nice! (Don't expect me to reply, I just happened to stop by here on the forums and saw this thread..)

Make sure you encode them in Ogg Theora though!
