I'm trying to set up kino using 10.1 OE and kernel 2.6.8.1-12mdk but it won't
go into capture mode and shows error message
"WARNING: raw1394 kernel module not loaded or failure to
read/write /dev/raw1394!"
Under /dev there is no device /dev/raw1394 at all.
However I have added raw1394 to /etc/modeprobe.preload and lsmod shows:-
lsmod:
video1394 15244 0
ohci1394 30788 1 video1394
raw1394 24492 0
ieee1394 292056 4 eth1394,video1394,ohci1394,raw1394
Also in /etc/security/console.perms I have the line
<camera>=/mnt/camera* /dev/usb/dc2xx* /dev/usb/mdc800* /dev/raw1394
/var/log/messages includes the following lines
ieee1394: raw1394: /dev/raw1394 device initialized
petebox rawdevices: succeeded
petebox drakxservices[5964]: running: chkconfig --add rawdevices
All the above looks ok to me. The problems seem to be that when I boot the
scrolling messages on the screen shows
Start sevice raw devices
Assigning raw devices: Cannot open master raw device '/dev/rawctl' (No
such
device or directory
As it says there is no /dev/rawctl in /dev, but this error message does not
show up under dmesg or /var/log/messages
Also Control centre System>services shows service rawdevices stopped although
it is checked to start at boot, if I click the start button the error message
about no /dev/rawctl is repeated.
I'm sorry for such a rambling explanation but if anyone has any idea what is
wrong and how to fix it I'd be most grateful.
My hunch is a kernel problem but I'm out of my depth knowing what to do next
TIA
