Hi John,

Try installing kino with apt-get:

apt-get install kino

And for some extra effects and filters do:

apt-get install kinoplus

That's how I installed Kino on my computer. To compile it I think you
need gnome-libs-devel or something.  Try it with apt-get first though.

I am replying to the whole list so someone else could maybe help you
with the compiling issue (if you still want to compile).

Hope this helps



Anton
