The implication is that you switched from
ohci1394 + ieee1394 + raw1394 ( /dev/raw1394 ) --- libraw1394 + libiec61883
+ kino
to
firewire-ohci + firewire-core ( /dev/fw* ) --- libraw1394 + libiec61883 +
kino
i.e. to different newer FireWire kernel drivers and a different character
device file interface. This is basically what the blueprint "Enable new
Firewire stack in default kernel config" is about. (See box at the right side
of this page.)
The new kernel drivers are simpler, better performing, more compliant to
specifications, and more secure than the older drivers. In contrast to
Ubuntu's raw1394 access policy, firewire-core's device files are created
with more liberal access permissions for devices which need to be (and
are safe to be) accessed by userspace programs such as kino.
