I compiled a kernel based on the linux-image-2.6.22-3-686 configuration.
I changed the following options (basically deactivating the new firewire
stack and activating the old one):

With this changes, kino runs without problems and I could use my
DV-camera to caputure video successfully. [Ok, I had to tune the rights
of the - now existing - /dev/raw1394 that were originally crw-rw---- ].

So for me this is a workaround I can live with - but maybe other users
don't feel comfortable when they have to build their own kernel.

I would suggest to modify the default kernel configuration regarding the
firewire driver and to use the "old" stack again. Isn't Debian famous
for using a conservative but functioning configuration? ;-)

Best regards,
Philipp
