Yes, raw1394 is obsolete. I've installed vloopback-source and loaded the module. That should be enough for the kernel. > (look at the first message, what's that "juju" firewire stack the user > mentions? :-?) The last two sentences in this section explain a little; although the link to reference [34] about migration to juju is dead. "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_1394#Operating_system_support"; Similar information here. http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/FireWire I know of nothing more informative. After a little trial and error I'll say that /dev/fw1 appears to be the output from vloopback. /dev/fw0 gives an error as in my original enquiry. Reasonable enough considering that vloopback duplicates a device for V4L usage. > ... how this finally affects Coriander, ... Appears that Coriander in Debian merely needs the default device updated from /dev/video0 to /dev/fw1. A bug report is appropriate. Now the remaining puzzle is that Skype and xawtv still can't use /dev/fw1. Example. peter@joule:~$ xawtv -device /dev/fw1 This is xawtv-3.95.dfsg.1, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.32-5-686) xinerama 0: 1024x768+0+0 /dev/fw1: wrong device v4l-conf had some trouble, trying to continue anyway no video grabber device available peter@joule:~$ Man v4l-conf tells that I shouldn't need to run v4l-conf directly. So what should be done next? Thanks, ... Peter E. -- New telephone 1 360 639 0202. Old telephone 1 360 450 2132. bcc: peasthope at shaw.ca Work "http://carnot.yi.org/";.
