I'm trying to get my firewire-card / dv-camcorder combination working on Linux. I'm using RedHat7.0 and I installed the 2.4Kernel sources and the 2.4 ieee patch. I was able to compile everything and insmod the ohci1394 and raw1394 modules. When I do a cat /proc/ohci1394 I get all kinds of information and it also mentions the correct number of nodes connected to the bus (2). So I guess things are working. But now I want to do something with it, so I downloaded the gscanbus source and tried to compile it. With no success. Apparently I need all kinds of include files which I do not have installed, and I do not know where to get them!! I've also downloaded the dvgrab binaries (rpm) and installed those. However when I try to run this program it gives an error that mentions that /dev/raw1394 device does not exist. Can anyone tell me how to get this device working? I've done a ls /dev/*1394* which resulted in 0 files, so I guess I'm missing some device files. |

You need libraw1394, which is a shared library applications use to access the 1394 kernel modules. During the installation of libraw1394 the missing device file will also be created. You can get libraw1394 here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/libraw1394/ -- Andreas Micklei IVISTAR Kommunikationssysteme AG Ehrenbergstr. 19 / 10245 Berlin http://www.ivistar.de |
