How to record a computer with ubuntu

Hello,

I have succes to record my computer with Audacity and Windows.
I try do it with Audacity and ubuntu 17.04 (fully updated) without success, I need your help !
I try it on three computers and I meet the same problem : I can select the microphone, but I can’t select the computer.
How to select the computer to record it ?

On Ubuntu you need to record the PulseAudio “monitor”. See here for details: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/tutorial_recording_computer_playback_on_linux.html
