There are several applications available for recording your desktop (screencasting) in Linux. The most popular method is recordmydesktop, with both KDE and GTK frontends. Some other, less popular applications for this purpose include XVidCap (useful because you can select a specific area and size to record) and VLC. KDE 4 includes an application for recording the desktop built-in, although the output file isn't very compatible with most media players and will need to be converted.

How do you install KDE in Ubuntu 8.10 without installing KDE applications?
A decent portion of the KDE desktop can be installed without installing its applications, although this makes little sense since GTK+ applications don't really look right in KDE. You should be able to do this by using the commandsudo apt-get install kdm kde-baseP.S. The version of KDE in the 8.10 (Intrepid) repository is very old and known to have a lot of bugs fixed in later versions. Unless you have a very good reason not to, you should upgrade to a later relase.
