To record a video from your desktop (like a screenshot, just in video), open a console, then
- decide if your current resolution fits. If it does not, change it using xrandr, e.g.
xrandr -s "640x480"
- install recordmydesktop, in this example for SUSE Linux:
yast -i recordmydesktop
- start the video recording with the command
recordmydesktop
Record a window only
Use xwininfo to find out the window ID, then start recordmydesktop like
recordmydesktop --windowid 0x2400014
