I've got a conglomeration of software on my Ubuntu system. I hope to
strip down and go Xubuntu at 12.04.1. I need some help with
alternatives.
I've been using K3B to burn CDs and DVDs, mostly release disks and
other software, a few backups.
I use Ktorrent.
I use Kalarm.
I use gparted and Gimp. Does the 'g' mean Gnome, GNU or what? What
else is there?
I use synaptic, and don't know if it's in Xubuntu.

Yes. That's what I wound up doing to Ubuntu, and don't want to repeat.

Almost makes me want to fork K3b. How much of KDE does it actually
need, I wonder.

<pre wrap="">Brasero comes with Xubuntu. It does everything that K3B does except
one-pass copying music CDs. I installed it to do this and it brought in 26MB
of KDE dependencies.

Personally I don't mind the dependencies, since K3B to me is the most
trustworthy one of them all.

<pre wrap="">
Thanks all. I don't copy music, so I'll be trying brasero. My
interests are mainly data, software and backups.

<pre wrap="">
It was already installed. I uninstalled K3b, reinstalled rhythmbox and brasero,
and tried to make a copy of the "utltimate boot CD" of utilities used by a local
charity I volunteer with.
Brasero read the CD, ejected the medium, and prompty died. I tried several
variations. Pretty much the same, though some died more quickly than that.
Help?
