Richard

Hi all, what's the best package for burning DVD's? I am just talking
personal data files here not Video/ copyrighted stuff.

I think Steve means "K3b", which is showing as five-star popularity on
Synaptic at the moment.

I see than many like k3b or was that k3p (?C3pi0?). If you are using
gnome an excellent alternative is Gnomebaker.

Whoops - my bad. I wasn't using Synaptic, I was using the Ubuntu
'Add/Remove' option at the bottom of the Applications menu in Gnome.
*That* shows a star rating based on number of downloads. Sorry to mislead.

It is not part of Ubuntu 6.06, but I do see it under Ubuntu 7.04. Don't
know if it was available in 6.10.

Can't find anything rated lower than three stars, except two in "System
Tools" (go figger). They should make an adjustment downward so there is
more "room at the top" for a better rating.
