Thank you very much for testing with the old drivers. The fact that nothing gets added to dmesg at the time when the camera is plugged in shows that the older drivers do not recognize the camera either, fully or partially.
But could you please run "grep . /sys/bus/ieee1394/devices/*/*" before and after you connected the (switched-on) camcorder? There is for example a file in there with a node count, which would normally be 1 before a device gets added and 2 after successful addition of a device. /dev/* files won't be added by the old drivers regardless whether devices are detected or not. But after "modprobe raw1394" as root, a /dev/raw1394 is created. Temporarily give your user permission to read and write this file, e.g. "chmod a+rw /dev/raw1394", again ran as root user. Then retry dvgrab. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1045047 Title: Firewire camera is not recognized To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1045047/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
