Add audio to home video in Lenny?
Hi, My family converted old home movies to a dvd disc not too long ago, but there is no audio, only video. I thought it would be neat to add some music to the video, and was wondering what package should I use?

Kernel 2,6,32-5-686 wrecks xorg
I upgraded the kernel to 2.6.32-5-686 and now X starts and works for a bit but then starts flickering and is unusable. This is on a Thinkpad Z61M.
