I've done my presentations on, first BSD and then Linux for over 6 years
now. I've been working with almost everything that can do presentation.
Here are a few of them that I consider nice.
Simpress (OpenOffice):
Nice to work with although it is a little to much for me. I do have had
2 occasions where OpenOffice crashed and I lost some of my presentation
but that has always been in the process of making the presentation. It
is very much like Powerpoint but it lacks a few minor things. I have
converted a lot of powerpoint files into OpenOffice format with no
hazzles but I'm not a advanced Powerpoint user so there could be
problems there for all I know.
Kpresenter (KDE):
I used this a couple of years ago so I'm not up to date with it.
Latex:
Here we have a few different ways to make a presentation. The last thing
I used is Prosper. It is really good but you are back to hacking latex.
It produces dvi, ps or pdf. We use latex at work because we share the
presentation in our CVS-tree. There are a few other classes in latex to
produce presentations. Foiltex and seminars are two.
Magicpoint:
The easiest. Could also be used with CVS because of its clear text format.
