Hi,
I will try disabling SE Linux and let you know what happened. How do I
disable SE Linux?

My camera is connected to the computer using a firewire and it takes
mini dv tapes.

"Until very recently, kino-0.8.0-2.lvn5 used to
crash on my FC5 system when opening an existing avi-encapsulated
(opendml) DV file captured with dvgrab."
This happened to me also. The second I click on the avi file captured
by dvgrab Kino immediately closes.

"There is an easy way to find out if SELinux is the culprit."
What exactly am I doing when I run the commands you listed. Am I
disabling SE Linux?

Thanks,
Mike
