Kino may be of interest. Also, there are some programs that work with
GIMP that will help you layout DVD menus, subtitles, etc.
Kino website:

Dag Wieers has Kino built for Fedora Core available via YUM and APT:

I just insert/remove the memory cards on my camera. Obviously only
viable if the camera uses memory cards. And not as elegant if the
camera has a nice docking station. There are easily dozens of posts on
the topic in this list's archives.

Neverwinter Nights works wonderfully for me. The hard part is finding a
stable video card with good 3D performance.
My favorite video card was a dual-head Radeon 7500 with TV output. I
curse myself daily for selling it. I currently have a Nvidia GeForce2
MX400 based card. The Nvidia frequently makes me want to put my fist
through things. It does work great when it works, though.
