No Op,
    At the moment until I get this first video finished I am  a little 
afraid to make this change but will a little later.   Cinelerra did not 
run well in Ubuntu 7.10  studio.  Lots of crashes and errors I read a 
lot about it on the Cinelerra list and many had a bad time of it.  I 
don't know if  it's been straightened out or not??   I have a couple 
external drives for back up so I saved the sound to it and load to disk 
#1 to put to video there for the time being.  I need to go back to the 
Cinelerra site and see what they are saying about running in studio.  I 
would like to get it all on one drive working together if possible.  I 
will a little later be doing a video of the inland waterway trip from 
Virgina through Florida  the northern and southern Bahamas and Florida 
keys.   It will be pretty near two hours in length so I will need drive 
#2 to work on as well as #1. It will take all of my two external drives 
for back up. Before I start this I have to get my act together on using 
the command line.    It's coming!
    Been reading a little on the Kino page.   Kino does not enable   
raw1394   because it is a security problem because any thing hooked to 
the fire wire cable has access to the entire computer.   So kino should 
be run by  root.  the the file ownership needs to be changed to user  
and put in user  home file.  This is because Cinelerra
has to use it in its home file back and forth from there to cinelera and 
saved to the user file.
I am afraid of doing all that editing as root.  They say there in Kino 
do not give permission to user to use raw1394 because in effect user 
becomes root as far as what he can do.  That sounds very dangerous to 
me.  Hope all this makes sense.
                                                    Thanks Doug
