It looks like the raw1394 module is no longer included in the newer Debian kernels. (I don't use the stock kernels, so I don't know for sure.) You might have to compile your own kernel to have the module available; its source code is still included in the Debian kernel sources. Alternatively you can try to "modprobe firewire-core". This is the module for the new "Juju" firewire stack; maybe Debian has switched to that. I don't know if userland tools such as dvgrab work with the new firewire stack already. According to the kernel documentation, firewire-core "functionally replaces ieee1394, raw1394, and video1394". -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
