Missing device

[John Moniz]

Thanks Anton;

I tried "apt-get install kino" again (had already tried it), but it 
can't find package kino. What repositories do you have? I only managed 
to find http://ayo.freshrpms.net and ftp://apt-rpm.tuxfamily.org for my 
sources.list (I just noticed I don't use rpm-src though). I would rather 
install with apt-get if I can.

John.
