I have a video camera with a firewire connection, which I've used in the past to connect to my SUSE box and download the video for later editing. However, it's not working any more - the PC doesn't seem to recognise that there's a camera attached. /var/log/messages reports: Dec 12 17:01:19 linux kernel: ieee1394: Error parsing configrom for node 0-00:1023 Dec 12 17:01:20 linux kernel: ieee1394: Error parsing configrom for node 0-01:1023 Dec 12 17:01:20 linux kernel: ieee1394: Node suspended: ID:BUS[0-00:1023] GUID[00601d0000013781] Dec 12 17:01:21 linux kernel: ieee1394: Node resumed: ID:BUS[0-00:1023] GUID[00601d0000013781] Dec 12 17:01:22 linux kernel: ieee1394: Current remote IRM is not 1394a-2000 compliant, resetting...

I'm not sure whether I was running 8.2 or 9.1 when last I used this camera (back in September), but I'm using 9.1 now. Any ideas gratefully received!
