You can convert it to iso via nrg2iso

sudo apt-get install nrg2iso
nrg2iso source.nrg desitination.iso

or you can try nero for linux

At least it helps in extracting afterwards the information. Thanks Aboobacker. – Luis Alvarado♦ Feb 25 '12 at 16:02
Just to add. To use it it is easy: nrg2iso IMAGE.nrg IMAGE.iso. – Luis Alvarado♦ Feb 25 '12 at 16:05
i'm using ubuntu 12.04 too, but it doesn't work for me. when use this command, says: It seems that SOURCE.nrg is already an ISO 9660 image‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ [Aborting conversion] I'm sure it's .nrg file because i get it from nero in Windows7 – Netmoon Oct 9 '12 at 8:04
@Netmoon: try to rename the file to filename.iso and extract it – Tachyons Oct 9 '12 at 8:59

One solution is to convert NRG to ISO using nrg2iso program. Another solution is to mount NRG using acetoneiso2. Both programs are present in repositories.

I first tried acetoneiso2 but it gave me an error for the nrg file. I used it first because it said that it supported nrg files. In any case I have just converted the nrg to iso. Thanks for the suggestion sindikat. – Luis Alvarado♦ Feb 25 '12 at 16:04
