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.
