Nero for Linux
Believe it or not. Nero is out for Linux. I still love K3b but this is certaintly something to know about. Here's the stuff. Thera are also some screenshots.

First, I should say that I do have issues with K3b. That being said, IMHO part of what makes linux great is the open-source software that it's constructed upon. Sure we could go over to closed source software and still be running "Linux" however (not to be fanatical about it) once we start down that slippery slope it's only a matter of time before we go the way of Windoze. In conclusion, save a tree, be kind and rewind, and above all else SUPPORT OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE!!! Thank you.

Opensource has become a slogan that has annoyed me now, which is epitomized in you. I use software, I like good software. If it is bad software I won't use it. License is irrelevant. Half you [edited] who rants about open-source never even have looked at the source code of these programs let alone understand a quarter of it.
Its the quality of the stuff, screw what license it comes under. For some things windows is much better than linux, for others linux is better. For each application and circumstance I see which is better and use it under the appropriate one. To say one sucks and only use the other is simply shooting yourself in the foot. I understand if you don't have the financial capabilities to pay for it, fine, but even then you shouldn't rant and shout out "SUPPORT OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE!!!". |

I have a dual boot PC with linux and XP.
For me ,if I want to burn something to a cd or dvd,I will boot into XP. I hope that FSF doesn't play the anti-piracy game.Because I am poor.:D |
The sad thing is, whenever I boot into Windows, there isnt a piece of software on there that I've paid cash for. I'm a criminal because of that. When I boot into linux there isnt a single piece of software I've paid cash for and its all totally legal. I dont know what that says but it makes me wonder if the moment apps like Nero start to appear for linux, everyone will abandon the free software projects and just go warez. Thoughts on a postcard to the usual address....

"Linux did ship with defective kernel...."
"error messages related to include/scsi/scsi.h & include/scsi/sg.h....." "upgrade to Linux-2.6.8 or newer or remove /usr/src/linux..........." " dynamic linker on Linux does not work correctly............................" "Until this is fixed it makes no sense to switch to libc.so.7..............." "Linux kernels past 2.0.30 will probably already have this patch included................................" what the hack is that,I even had to convert my atapi cdrom into scsi ones !Even if it is all true and workable,mind you,can I trust my blank cdrom or DVD to linux "kernel" (at least i sounded abstract enough for the linux hacker,try talking about "NT kernel" to MS users including those hardcore professional ones).Linux is free,but burning blank roms on my "XP" is definately cheaper.Agree?:rolleyes: |

I don't know exactly if this is the answer you are looking for, but it seems to me you are asking about what desktop API (or whatever is that you call it) they are using. It that is the case, it uses some not-so-updated version of GTK, I think. Perhaps he screenshots are themed too. Who knows?

My 2 cents... it's like the same thing when Symantec released PCAnywhere for Linux. So it's true, VNC does the same thing possibly better, so that means we won't use it. But if someone does need to use it, it'll be there for him and not be an obstacle in his Linux path. As well, at least it shows willingness of software vendors to acknowledge and develop for the new movement to Linux.
