Multi Session Burner for Linux

Brasero is also known previously as bonfire could burn multisession. Being searching for a solution for burning multisession for quite awhile and I just found out that I could use yum to install it on my fedora. For fedora, just $yum install brasero.

gnome-baker or yum install kb3

Don't know if Nero7 can do it, but Gnome Baker, Brasero, Graveman and a bunch of other programs from the repositories can.

I'm bonfire author and I can confirm that bonfire does multisession for both CD and DVD.
NOTE: nautilus-cd-burner is not used for burning, bonfire relies on its own library.

xcd-roast is the short simple answer to your problems. It will do multisession and it does not require kdelibs.


try neroLINUX. works well apparently.

never had any probs with GnomeBaker

Video Edit Using mencoder

mencoder -ss 00:10:10 -endpos 00:02:00 -ovc copy -oac copy "Outlander 2008.avi" -o "test.avi"
mencoder -vf scale -zoom -xy 400 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4 -oac copy "test.avi" -o "t-size.avi"

$mencoder -ovc lavc start.avi end.avi -o complete.avi
mencoder -oac copy -ovc copy part1.avi part2.avi part3.avi -o WHOLE-THING.avi
mencoder -oac copy -ovc copy t*.avi -o tt.avi

mencoder dvd://2 -vf scale -zoom -xy 512 -o title2.avi -oac copy -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4

Remote Access to Linux Box

Remote desktop access enables you, or another person to view and interact with your desktop environment from another computer system either on the same network or over the internet.

1) Activating Remote Desktop Access
System menu, select Preferences followed by Internet and Network and click on Remote Desktop

vncviewer hostname:0

example ip: 192.168.1.101
vncviewer 192.168.1.101:0

2) Establishing a Secure Remote Desktop Session

ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 192.168.1.101

if vnc is not installed yet, root$yum install vnc

Assigning shorcuts/functions to keys

Gnome Desktop Environment maps all multimedia keys by default and you can re-assign those with gconf-editor and Keyboard Shortcuts.

In KDE, you have to do it yourself.
Execute xev command and note down keycode of key. Execute xmodmap command to assign whatever application/function you want to invoke.
Code:

xmodmap -e 'keycode 115=Menu'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 174=XF86AudioLowerVolume'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 176=XF86AudioRaiseVolume'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 160=XF86AudioMute'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 162=XF86AudioPlay'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 162=XF86AudioPause'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 161=XF86Calculator'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 178=XF86WWW'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 237=XF86AudioMedia'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 236=XF86Mail'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 235=XF86MyComputer'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 230=XF86Terminal'

Save above code in file, let say, key_map.sh and move it to ~/.kde/env folder. It will be autoexecuted on every login.
Edit any/all shorcuts according to your needs.

Enable RPMFUSION to install mplayer

To set up the RPMFusion repositories:

$ sudo rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm \ http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm
$ sudo rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-*

Make a bash script accesible from anywhere in the system

1) Create script in /bin or /.bin
2) #!/bin/bash at the beginning of each script
3) $ chmod u+x
4) Export path $ export PATH=$PATH:/home/username/bin
5) to make it permanent - write the command on .bashrc, open file /home//.bashrc
