Here is my current trial of xvidcap on 11.04 It records screen area nicely. No sound. Stop recordiing then hit 'play' and system brings up mplayer. Missing /dev/mga_vid and /dev/fd0 has permission rw-rw---- bits set.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- lots os stuff on the Internet about this not working, but no solutions that work.
