(...) "Krecord" could be an option but is not in the repos anymore, maybe you can search in the snapshot archive: http://snapshot.debian.org/package/krecord/1.16-3/ Probably that packages wwere for Debian 4.x, not sure if it will install in lenny :-? Or you can try to compile from sources: http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/KRecord+-+Wav+Recorder?content=26436 Just note that this is an old and discontinued application that required KDE 3.4 and all its Qt 3.x libraries. So you can explorer another packages, like "qarecord": http://qt-apps.org/content/show.php/QARecord?content=112651 (maybe you can still find a release that works under Qt3...) Another option could be installing the "gnome-media" metapackage that has the gnome-sound-recorder app, but I personally, prefer not to mix desktop environments libraries/applications (call me "old-fashioned", but I hate dealing with silly DE collisions :-P).
