Hi,
Can any one, point me to a Howto that explains how to use the new
Firewire stack in F7/8,
I'm trying to get my Mini DV camera to work with via Firewire, actually
was hoping to use the Camara with ZoneMinder.
lspci shows:
08:08.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments TSB43AB22/A
IEEE-1394a-2000 Controller (PHY/Link)
lsmod shows:
firewire_ohci 19137 0
firewire_core 36353 1 firewire_ohci
crc_itu_t 5953 1 firewire_core
However, no devices in /dev/fwX appear to be created ?
dvgrab does not see a device connected:
#dvgrab
Error: no camera exists
I checked the fedora documentation, but could not find any docs on the
subject.
BTW: I'm using kernel 2.6.24.2-7.fc8PAE
TIA.
Albert.
It probably doesn't work with your firewire chip. See
http://wiki.linux1394.org/JujuMigration
You'll have to rebuild the kernel, and not use the experimental 1394 stack.
Good luck.
