]I use brec, which in debian is in the 'bplay' package.
]$ brec -S -s 44100 -b 16 -w file.wav
]will record a file from line in at CD stereo quality in wav format, which
]you can convert to ogg later using sox or oggenc. (oggenc is probably
]better).
]I've been recording vinyl albums like this, and the wav file for two sides
]works out around 500 Mbytes. Once I've recorded it on the audio machine
]in the living room, I move it to my workstation upstairs, then split the
]tracks using rezound, then burn it to CD.
]If you want to store recorded wav tracks with no loss of quality (compared
]to ogg or mpg123 which are lossy formats), have a look at flac. (only
]about 50% compression though).
]Or if you have alsa installed, try arecord (another command line program).
]If you want a gui program, rezound is a nice audio editor which lets you
]record from line in with a level indicator to adjust the volume. It will
]also start recording automatically when the level goes above a threshold.
gnoise, gramaphone, arecord, krec,....
