Screen Recording is a a difficult job on every OS. Linux has it really bad however today I will show four free as in beer and freedom screen recording programs for Linux.
1) Record my desktop
Record my desktop was the first main screen recording program released for Linux. It has many options for screen recording however has no screenshot function or webcam viewer included.
The main problem with record my desktop is that until recently it couldn't encode on the fly and therefore sometimes is heavier on CPU power.

2) Kazam
Kazam was a revolution in screen recording. It was the first major screen caster with on the fly encoding and comes with a built in screenshot function. The main problem with Kazam is it has no webcam viewer and doesn't work with every configuration.
Below is a screenshot of Kazam
3) Vokoscreen
Vokoscreen is a screen casting application which comes with a built in webcam viewer and has lots of settings for changing audio sources and many other settings.
The main disadvantage is there is now screenshot capture mode so you have to record a screen cast.

4) Simple Screen Recorder
Simple screen recorder is a very simple screen recorder which can be customized quite a lot. It is good because it can encode on the fly also the hot keys can be customized very easily. However it's bad because the program has one audio track and no screenshot or webcam function.
Attached underneath is a screenshot of Simple Screen Recorder.
Conclusion
To conclude all of these screen casting applications work well on most systems so you just choose the program with the features you need.
