Graphical tool for CD/DVD burning

kushalkoolwal · 11-09-2005, 02:53 PM

I am planning to use linux for CD/DVD burning i.e. my debain sarge system with GNOME installed.

Can anyone suggested some good rock solid tool for DVD/CD burning? I know about cdrecord but I am looking for something GUI based.

Thanks.

k3b is a kde app. If you use gnome, take a look at gnomebaker and graveman. I've used both and they work very well, but I prefer the UI of gnomebaker.

I think K3b needs the QT (KDE) graphical library

oops yeah, i totally glossed over the fact that he said gnome.

still, if you have the kde libs installed, k3b is the best. i use it, and i don't use kde, either.

Of course, k3b appears to not be in testing at this time for some reason. Anyone know where it has gone to?

k3b in testing seems to be waiting for gcc-4.0 http://packages.qa.debian.org/k/k3b.html

I guess you could either install a k3b package from stable, unstable or from souces. If you want to build from sources, install "apt-build" and see it's installation instruction. Sources might be available even though the application itself is not...

you can also install k3b by adding in your /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://www.planet-moll.de/debian sarge main

run the following:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install k3b

Thank you guys. Looks like k3b is the way to go......
