Fedora Core comes with nautilus-cd-burner and a ripper called sound-juicer (main menu -> Sound & Video -> Sound Juicer CD Ripper). Sound-juicer only supports Ogg by default, of course. If you need MP3 support you'd have to install it from rpm.livna.org or elsewhere. nautilus-cd-burner should automatically open when you insert a blank CD-R or CD-RW. (Although a kernel bug prevents it from working with external drives.) Drag files to the window then select "Write to CD" (File menu -> Write to CD). If you drag only audio files to the window it gives you the option to burn an audio CD in the "Write to CD" dialog. To manually launch the CD Creator: nautilus --no-desktop burn: To have it burn an ISO image: nautilus-cd-burner filename.iso Others have mentioned K3B or X-CDRoast if you need a program with 10 million options and dialogs/menus 6 levels deep. (e.g. making a bootable CD) However, nautilus-cd-burner is quite adequate for normal use, I'd think. -- David Norris http://www.webaugur.com/dave/ ICQ - 412039
