Seriously, does this look like the truecrypt support forum? Check Ubuntu wikis or truecrypt forums. To answer your question in short. It is not possible to do this with truecrypt for linux. There is better software for that (dm-crypt)
What program did you use for the screencast? I don't recall any open source program being able to follow the mouse in a bounded space...except for the Windows program Camstudio.
I used recordmydesktop. It is in active development and the mouse-follow was inplemented a quite a while ago. In fact I suggested it to the dev and it took him only a week to put out a new release with the mouse-follow feature.
For this video I activated full-frame-capture, mouse-follow and added "-width 640 -height 480" in the "additional options" section. recordmydesktop is a cmd-line program but has nice GUIs for KDE and Gnome.
whole-drive enyryption only works with windows. for linux there are other (more integrated) options to achieve this (dm-crypt/cryptsetup). The performance does go down, but you can live with it. I would certainly not use it on devices where I store data for video or audio editing. Think disabling DMA-Mode. I used SHA-512 because it is the most secure (currently) and thwofish-serpent just for demonstration purposes. more encryption means less performance.
Any reason for Twofish-serpent and sha-512 over the defaults? Also, I heard this version can encrypt whole drives and I wonder how much that affects OS performance.
Nice video. Never used TrueCrypt before so this is pretty helpful.

Sorry, complete newbie. How do you manage to use a GUI for TrueCrypt ?? ... Is it running on Wine?

Truecrypt 5 as a GUI for Linux now.. no need for Wine.
