Rolf, first thanks so much for the great Gimp tutorials in meetthegimp.org!! I have directed many to the site from flickr.
What program do you use to create those vids?

Didn't think anyone used cinelerra...I tried it a few years back and could never figure it out. Maybe you can do some 'meet cinelerra' episodes in the future? =)

I don't love cinelerra, but know nothing better. There was a cinelerra howto in a screencast somewhere.... I have it on google..... ;-)

I saw the both "The Source" podcasts. A bit helpful. Most important: press "s" for save all the time. It crashes a lot. And Murphy rules.....

Istanbul is a desktop session recorder for the Free Desktop. It records your session into an Ogg Theora video file. To start the recording, you click on its icon in the notification area. To stop you click its icon again. It works on GNOME, KDE, XFCE and others.

recordMyDesktop is a
desktop session recorder for GNU/linux that attemps to be easy to use, yet also effective at it's primary task.
As such, the program is separated in two parts; a simple command line tool that performs the basic tasks of capturing and encoding and an interface that exposes the program functionality in a usable way.

I am using recordmydesktop for some weeks - it is great.
I'll fit my production chain around it and get more speed into production. Sometimes this takes too much time.... ;-)

I am using a trial version of Snapz Pro X for now. It is great, and you can create another user account to continue usage after the end of trial period.

Thanks, I'll have to try it, but according to the Copernicus website, it saves the video directly to the RAM, which to me doesn't seem like it would play very nice with another RAM-intensive program like the GIMP (especially on my dinky 512MB Macbook), though a quick Google search hasn't turned up anything better for as good a price... :-)

If you are interested in Snapz Pro X then have a look here:
http://www.macheist.com/
It is not unlocked yet but I'm sure it will be. Even if you do not use the other apps it is $20 off the full price anyway. istopmotion is a fun app as well especially if you have kids.
Not free but pretty good value if you are interested one of the other apps as well.

If you don't love Cinelerra maybe you would like to try this one:
http://kdenlive.org/
I didn't test it yet. But I found it very intuitive at first sight.

Kdenlive is very simple to use, although it has some annoying bugs, like unexpected crashes. Fortunately, it rarely happens.

I tried it once, but I couldn't set the video size to 800x600 or 640x480. Only TV stuff.... :-(
