Hi,
I did try that earlier but I get this:

root@Microknoppix:/home/knoppix# apt-get install -t stable vlc
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 vlc : Depends: vlc-nox (= 1.1.3-1squeeze6) but it is not going to be installed
       Recommends: vlc-plugin-notify (= 1.1.3-1squeeze6) but it is not
going to be installed
       Recommends: vlc-plugin-pulse (= 1.1.3-1squeeze6) but it is not
going to be installed
E: Broken packages

I also tried adding this to /etc/apt/sources.list :
deb http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/debian sid main
deb-src http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/debian sid main

But I still get the same error.
I am installed the cd version of knoppix 6.7 into a usb.

Thanks,
Elison
