If you have a KDE-core installation, on top of an Ubuntu system, and want CD Burning support, the defacto CD Burning software is K3b. You can install it with: sudo apt-get install k3b Most likely, in a Red Hat System, you can use: yum install k3b ; it should resolve all dependencies :) You can also download the source code for version 1.0.3 from Sourceforce if your Linux Distribution does not have it in its apt or yum repositories: http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/k3b/k3b-1.0.3.tar.bz2
