Ubuntu Tips - How to burn mp3 to CD Audio

Easy steps:

1) You'll need k3b: click here
2) After you've installed k3b, grab libk3b3-extracodecs here

Or for easier steps, use the Software Center > Sounds & Music > k3b for the latest version.

Click on audio cd project then navigate to your mp3 folder and just click once on the files u want copied over to disk, then click burn

Note: I experience k3b crash when starting all the time. I noticed that there is a permission issue when the k3b tried to start-up. Therefore, I used root user to start up, by firing the Terminal and type: sudo k3b

Difference between Windoze and Ubuntu

In Windows XP, if I want to startup n shutdown, the fastest would be using hibernate. However, at some point in time, I still need to restart the PC because the RAM will continue to be consumed, causing the system to be slow.

On the other hand, hibernating Ubuntu is a slower process than Windows. However I find hibernating in Ubuntu useless because starting up and shutting down in Ubuntu takes only a few seconds!

GO GO UBUNTU!!
