Free cd ripper ubuntu software for linux

M3U Ripper is a Firefox extension that allows you to rip the contents of an m3u, wmx, or ram playlist file link by right clicking on the link and selecting the "Rip Playlist Contents..." option from the popup menu. The option will only appear if the URL ends with the proper file extension.

All the URLs in the M3U file are downloaded via the Firefox download manager to the default download directory or the one specified in the M3U Ripper options. You can also optionally have M3U Ripper create a sub directory with the playlist file name, create the remote playlist file, create a local playlist file, and filter URLs within the playlist files via regular expressions.

MMSRIP is a pure useless program which allows you to save on your hard-disk the content being streamed by an MMS server.
This program has been written for personnal use, so dont blame me if you think I am stupid doing such tool for the others.
MMS Ripper project should run on every POSIX compliant Operating System, but I cant give you any complete list.
MMSRIP is a client for the proprietary protocol MMS://.
It actually saves to a file the content being streamed. Please remember that this is not intended for real use, its existence is only and must only be documentary.
Enhancements:
- This release introduces many improvements and bugfixes such as a workaround for recalcitrant MMS servers, a switch which enables debug output and the display of the ripping speed.
- You may also compile MMSRIP on Solaris, Cygwin, and Win32 now.

VoiceBuntu (Ubunterisk) is an Ubuntu based live Linux distribution that uses Asterisk and VoiceOne to provide VoIP service.
VoiceBuntus focus is to run asterisk with no installation needed. VoiceBuntu - ubuntu itself - has built in boot prompt cheap code one can use called persistent.
This feature allows the user to use VoiceBuntus persistent feature in order to keep settings on a flash disk or memory stick.
To start, just burn the ISO file on a CD-ROM then start the live cd distribution and wait until everything is ready.
Please note, that apache will start at the very last moment of the boot cycle. So you may a to wait 1 or 2 minutes to let everything load.
Once everything is prepared, start your browser and point to the IP address of your running VoiceBuntu (i.e. http://192.168.0.10).
If you have no DHCP Server available you can press F6 at boot screen and add additionally add the command parameter
static=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
netmask=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
bcast=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
gateway=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
dns1=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
dns2=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP of your choice.
By that VoiceBuntu boots with static IP address on eth0 network device.
Enhancements:
- This live CD release is based on Ubuntu 7.04 and VoiceOne 0.5.0_2 due to a minor bug in VoiceOne version 0.5.0.

Booting Ubuntu To RAM is an article aims to document the process of creating a customized Ubuntu that loads an image from the hard disk to RAM, then boots an entire Ubuntu session out of RAM. It is intended for intermediate to advanced Ubuntu users who are familiar with the shell, and may have limited experience customizing the livecd (LiveCDCustomization) and shell scripting. We will customize a LiveCD and copy it to the hard drive, and make a few modifications to bootup scripts so that it copies to RAM via our good friend tmpfs.
WARNING: The author asserts that this procedure works for him, but cannot guarantee that this procedure works for anyone else. Although this procedure is meant to be 100% safe, it is feasible that there may be mistakes, or a chance of misunderstanding the instructions in a manner that causes loss of data. Please make a backup and do not attempt on mission critical systems. Read through this article thoroughly, and do not attempt if you do not comprehend or feel comfortable about any of the instructions!
CAUTION: I hope this is intuitively obvious, but Ill humor you and state it bluntly: Changes you make under the live session are NOT saved and WILL BE LOST when you reboot or shut down. Dont save anything important to the "home directory" and expect it to still be around! If you want to save data permanently, mount a permanent medium (such as your hard drive), plug in a thumbdrive, or use some network functionality built into Ubuntu to save your data to a non-volatile destination.
There are many cases where one would like to boot Ubuntu to RAM:
- Performance: The desktop performance is dramatically improved. A 400MB squashed filesystem in RAM, that holds 1200MB of data, is read back on a 1.6GHz Core Duo in about 3 seconds, including decompression time.
- Power, Noise, Durability: Although modern hard disks dont use much power compared to other system components, this may still be important for some. In laptops, hard disks are often the noisiest components, so this setup can reduce system noise. With the hard disk spun down, a laptop can potentially withstand greater shocks without damage.
- Abrupt poweroff: Since the hard disk is only momentarily used in read-only mode during boot, then never touched again, there are few or no negative consequences of an abrupt poweroff. If a system is used where power is inconsistent, or the system is regularly used in a context where fast shutoffs are required, this is very handy.
- Privacy: Anything you do in this session are lost when you reboot or power off. This is great for kiosks or other systems where permanent modification are not desired. (Note that by default the livecd user has full sudo access, so potentially a malicious user can still make permanent changes by mounting the hard drive and following this HOWTO)

Xubuntu community projects aim is to provide a nice Ubuntu desktop experience (even on older hardware) by using Xfce4 as the desktop environment and GTK+ 2 applications wherever possible.

Xfce4 has been supported in Ubuntus universe by the MOTUXfce team since Hoary and Breezy. For Dapper we want to go one step further and make Xubuntu a sibling of Ubuntu, Kubuntu, and Edubuntu by having install and live CD images generated for it.

As Ubuntu has a delay of six weeks with a new release date of the first of June, Xubuntu should be released at the same time and should use the latest stable Xfce 4.X code (hopefully 4.4 will be released by then).
