It's actually pretty easy to do ... here's a few other informative articles that helped me burn a VCD:
http://smorgasbord.net/convert_video_linux
http://georgetoft.com/linux/QAF/createvcd/index.shtml
Many useful commands (vob2avi is the one I'm targeting)

nautilus is definitely a cd burning GUI by the way, one i was really pissed off with too till i finally found out how to deactivate it popping up the whole time i put in a blank cd!
i use xcdroast as i said, because it has all the options i need in one place, and it does its job reliably and predictably.
i really wanted to mention SIAG office by the way, it has a word processor, spreadsheet and some other stuff, is GPL and appears to be a lot less bloated than other office quites. http://siag.nu/
the only reason i didn't mention it till now is i haven't used it much so i don't know how good it is. it's a ridiculous 1.5MB download though, that has to be worth something!

Oh yeah, SIAG, almost forgot about that. They have it on DSL ... it actually works pretty well and it's a really small download.

Kate, a kick-ass graphical text editor. Code folding, saved sessions, embedded terminal, split viewports, it rocks. And I'm liking the idea of having the tabs vertical rather than horizontal in a text editor. Another kick-ass KDE app..
H_TeXMeX_H:
Most of the bundled and available ROX apps are very good:
http://rox.sourceforge.net/desktop/software
It's nice that you can easily edit and configure them (since they are python-based) and add new features by installing python modules.
Instead of minimum profit I've moved to ROX Edit ... it's capable of both syntax highlighting and spellcheck and undo and redo and view changes.
