cousteauHi!11:23
cousteauAnyone recommends a program to clone a CD?  (The CD contains medical images of which I am the legitimate owner, so to my understanding I am legally allowed to do this)11:25
cousteauxfburn only seems to allow burning preexisting ISOs.  I recall Brasero had a "read CD, and then burn it" feature.  I might try that11:31

cousteauok nvm, Brasero worked like a charm.  Xfburn doesn't seem to have a read CD feature, or at least I couldn't find it.12:16
cousteaubut Brasero was designed to be used by idiots, so it was a perfect fit :D12:17
cousteauso now I have two programs for burning CDs, but hey, better too much than too little :)12:29

gnrpcousteau: Also, DD should just do the trick well to get the iso file18:18
cousteauyeah, some googling just yielded "use dd"18:19
cousteaubut since the examples didn't include a bs= parameter and I didn't know which one to use for optimal performance, and I don't know if that's safe enough for read errors... well, I decided to go the easy way and just have a GUI do everything for me18:20
gnrpcousteau: Generally, just setting bs to 4k works fine, but really, anything big works18:20
cousteauI'd have used 1M just in case18:21
cousteaubut... I decided to leave that to the gurus that designed brasero and be done with it18:21
cousteauI'm not even sure about the intricate details of how CDs work.  I know they're not just "a bunch of zeros and ones" and there are some special CD formats that can mess up things, but from I could google it seems that medical CDs are just regular data CDs18:22
pikapikaDoes 20.04lts have fractional scaling?22:19
pikapikawould be nice to have but not a big issue if its not available22:21
pikapikaI generally just adjust font sizes, window decoration sizes etc and it does most of the job22:22
