===================================================


This directory contains binaries, pointers and sources for some IEEE1394
(aka Firewire) applications which were successfully used for testing
the combination of

       -  a Terratec Cameo 400 DV IEEE1394 Hostadapter card
       -  a the Digital video camera JVC GR-DVL100 EG 

on a system running a customized Linux 2.2.16 kernel in a SuSE Linux
7.0-i386 installation.

The kernel is available under the URL:

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/kgw/7.0/ieee1394/linux-2.2.16

           supposed to ope (even for playback only). Otherwise,
           kino will fail silently.
