Hi Debian Kernel Maintainers,
I'm the Debain Maintainer for dvgrab.
I have received a bugreport (#432614) for it. Running dvgrab on
kernel 2.6.21 works with this warning in syslog:
" kernel: raw1394: WARNING - Program "dvgrab" uses unsupported
isochronous request types which will be removed in a next kernel
release
kernel: raw1394: Update your software to use libraw1394's newer
interface"
Now kernel 2.6.22 is in Debian and the kernel team has disabled
CONFIG_IEEE1394, thus rendering dvgrab utterly useless with that
kernel. It will give:
"raw1394 - failed to get handle: No such file or directory.".
To get dvgrab working again it is needed to enable the old firewire
stack again.
Please note, that the new firewire stack is not stable, implements
not all features and there are no libraries released for it
(libraw1394, libdv1394).
Kindly reards,
Erik
