Check for device file: /dev/raw1394 Do You have one? Do You have permissions to read/write to this device?
$ ls -la /dev/raw1394 On my Ubuntu 9.04 system this looks like: crw-rw---- 1 root disk 171, 0 2009-10-30 11:34 /dev/raw1394 This means You must be either root or in the disk users group. If there is no device file, You must load raw1394 module. From Your dmesg logs seems like module is loaded. -- coriander fails with Firewire-iSight-Webcam using libdc1394.
