I can only share my own experiences here, but hopefully they will be of some use to you. I now run Edgy (6.10) on my laptop and since the upgrade from Dapper, I've had to do some tweaking of kernel boot options in order for my IEEE1394 adapter to work. In the output from dmesg, I saw an error along the lines of "nobody cared, try using irqpoll" (apologies, I don't have the exact message available now as I've cured, or at least worked around the problem), which is exactly what I did -- I supplied the irqpoll option to the kernel from the grub boot screen -- and the IEEE1394 now seems to work correctly. If you wanted to try an alternative to Kino, purely for getting the DV data from the camcorder onto your machine for later processing, you could try dvgrab. As for video editing, I'm afraid I'm not of much help, as I haven't got as far as that yet! Hope that helps, JT -- ---------------------------------------+-------------------------------- James Tait, BSc | xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Programmer and Free Software advocate | Mobile: +44 (0)7779 337596 ---------------------------------------+-------------------------------- -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
